That's an interesting read Tim Thumbs Up . Do you provide a fitting service like that or was that purely for the magazine article?

Built a few dashes with Carling switches

The killer is the time to do it properly including a diagram and key with wire colours and functions etc

Tim, the water marking you are adding to your photos is making them pretty difficult to view.

It is automated I am afraid - I will ask them to see what we can do.

Sorry to bring up an old thread but thought it was better than starting a new.
I have the mud console and I am about to order the carling switches for it I want to use the plugs for the switches to make it easier to un plug later on.
Do any of you know if I have my radio say in the top angled slot then the switches below, if with the plugs on it will clear the radio ? Or will it work with switches up top then radio below ?
I am putting my cb right at the bottom
Thanks guys

The radio clashes with the plugs for the switches. I had to put the radio at the bottom and the CV at the top. It is still fiddly to remove the plugs.

Finally got it fitted. Managed to get the radio in the top and switches below and so far not had to cut out the dash.

I will order the bits and if so the cb will have to go up top.
I sore the OP but I didn't know if he had used the plug on the back of the switches.
Once I have got it to fit I will let you know how or if it works
Thanks again guys

I'm 99% sure I did use the black plugs at the back of the switches. I think if I did it again, I would drop the switches down by about 5mm to give a little more clearance 1999 Defender TD5 110
