Interactive Dash
So my order has changed to 23MY and the interactive dash is no longer an option.
So my question is, The loom connection is the ame? I can't see LR having a different dash loom just for the display. So in theory, could you get a dash from a written off car and transplant it into 1 without it?
Would then just need someone like Powerful UK/ Venture or someone similar to programm it for you?
Or failing that, when the chip shortage is sorted and the dash is available from your dealer. 110 D250 SE HT

Would the problem after changing then become your odometer reading and having to have that awful sticker on the dash advising everyone you’ve changed it? Not great for the value of the car when you want to sell it. Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come

It must be programmable?? it's only electronics. Perhaps we need to ask Simon @ powerfuluk to look into it? 110 D250 SE HT

If the odo is programmable then I’ll be asking them to remove 6000 or 7000 very enjoyable miles I had in mine to get it back to below average mileage! The last week has been its lowest mileage week since I bought it, zero miles in the last 7 days - as I’ve been hooning around like a boy racer in my electric Mini for zero recharging cost - consumed 66kw from CPS chargers that cost me nothing! Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come

United Kingdom 2016 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 XS CSW Scotia Grey
If it’s like older Land Rovers

The mileage is stored n the unit and in the ecu, I seem to recall it will apply the higher value when paired.

So a new clock will have 0 stored mileage Mike

Correct, the Puma has the mileage stored in 2 places.
I can imagine that someone like Simon at Powerful UK, Pete Bell, or any other tuner with an intimate knowledge of LR electronics would be able to sort this out 110 D250 SE HT

Seems it’s doable on a Velar - if anyone can do it it will be these guys.

Have to say the digital dash would be a dealbreaker for me, it’s truly an excellent feature and I would really have regretted not specifying it given it was only a £150
option.

I agree the digital dash is a nice feature but not a deal breaker for me. I've never had a car with it so it won't be missed. But if they take to many features away from the SE spec then it all adds up to a dealbreaker.
Good to know it can be done though. Wonder how many kidneys I'd have to sell though 110 D250 SE HT

A quick google and it seems it's £1K to install the interactive dash on a Velar, so would assume(?) it would be roughly the same for Defender??? 110 D250 SE HT
