RR Sport centre dash retrofit in D3

Hello, Hope someone can help?
I’m sure i have seen on here a thread about fitting the centre dash controls and console from a RR sport in to a D3….
I have searched the forums but I can not find it!
Can someone point me to a link?

Thanks…

Been thinking about this myself I prefer the RR sport dash to the D3 but replacing the radio with a touch screen only problem is I have got a manual.

Does anyone know if anybody else has done this modification?

Looks good, wonder if all connections are plug and play. Then what was the cost of the parts.

Will do.. hopefully going to have a go at the weekend.

I've got most of the bits ordered I think, although one or two of the heater vent housings are proving a bit difficult to find.

I'll make a list when I've put it together and check everything's good to go Thumbs Up

Yes, all finished now and really pleased with how it looks Thumbs Up

I ended up taking it all out again on more than one occasion as I hadn’t done it in the correct order. For example the glove box frame needs doing first, as one of the mounting bolt positions is behind the console mounting frame. Also took a few attempts to get the wiring loom in the correct position before it was long enough to reach the new switch positions.
Did you get a new gear selector cable, the original d3 one is too short ?

I’m away at moment, will post a few pics when I get back tomorrow night.

If you get stuck with anything, feel free to message and I’ll try and help.

This gives an idea where I positioned the harness ( not necessarily correct, but worked for me )




As it looks now...
