It has 2 screws underneath Crying or Very sad where the Range Rover emblem is they are directly beneath that. The only way to get to them is the top part of your centre consul has to be removed and you'll be able to undo the screws. Bit of a ball ache but be careful not to scratch or mark anything.

TIP, where you insert a CD you need to unclip the plastic cover and you'll see 2 small screws remove them and the consul will be able to be removed. Thumbs Up


Thanks again for your help ABSport. Got it installed today. It was a lot easier than i thought. Took about half hour. Only issue was the screws from the old panel didn't fit but i had some extras at home which worked. I kept the noble chrome surround panel. The metal color for the switch panel is different than the surround panel. Not a big difference but it looks great. Here is a pic.

If putting 'Autobiography' logos on everything makes you happy, who am i to say otherwise. I just have a personal distaste for it. 2012 Evoque

I'm sure you do Confused I like many on here do not have £100k to buy a car, ( SVR ) my thread is purely to show other RRS enthusiasts what can be done if wanted to upgrade. Rolling Eyes

Like most normal car forums most people like to upgrade or apply modifications to their pride and joys........... The majority of members on here like to update wheels, bumpers, and interiors etc to make there car there own with there special touch.
My thread just shows the complete conversion like many others on here who have done it and showed it off.

I've enjoyed what I've done and like giving advice to others on here who ask for help, Bodsy and Disco Mikey are the GODS ON HERE, who help others to save money and modify there Range Rover's. ( ENOUGH SAID ). Whistle

Whether i have an SVR or not is irrelevant. Ive worked my ass off and made sacrifices to buy my cars. My hard work made it happen.

I understand you have enjoyed modding, dont care what i think and many people alter their cars. I get it. im not jumping on your case and telling you you are wrong. I guess the thing that irks me, personally, is you have changed a car into something else. I guess an extreme case would be the Barry boys who body kit MR2's to look like Ferraris. Im not suggesting you have taken it to this level but its my opinion.

Im sure many people appreciate you have helped them with info on buying/replaying bits. Thats what makes forums great. Im not taking that away from you, Buy you cant please everyone and expect everyone to agree and like your changes. I am a woman afterall...... 2012 Evoque

I and many others on here also have worked there arses off.......this brand of manufacture isn't exaclly cheap, when you say changed it into something different.......it's a Range Rover Sport with a model spec upgrade no big deal, and nothing like a boy racer as you say MR2.

Amazing conversion, its one thing to do the external 'bolt on' panels but another thing totally to tackle the 'complete' interior. Good job, keeps you busy and more than that puts a Very Happy on your face.
Well done Thumbs Up
