Products > MUD Dashboard Centre Console

Defender Dash Console £52.00  

The MUD Centre Console solves the problem of where to mount those extra switches and gauges in the Defender dashboard without having to resort to a homemade DIY dashboard or making the common mistake of sourcing the 02 model dash panel only to discover its installation requires far more work than you first thought!
The MUD Console is supplied as a blank moulding to provide the user the flexibility to create  their own unique dash layout that best satisfies their requirements.


Worldwide Distributor Enquiries Welcome
 

The unique design of the MUD Centre Console allows you to mount your CD/Tuner head unit into one of two positions within the console and still leave plenty of room for all those ancillaries while at the same time presenting a factory look and a quality finish.
 

The two recessed mouldings within the console provide a neat method of relocating the standard rear-wash wipe switch (if fitted) and the 12v cigar lighter/power socket. These together with the areas immediately over the circular mouldings also provides an additional surface for mounting extra switches, gauges, mobile phone holder etc, etc...
 


For that finishing touch, the MUD Console is fitted with an additional recessed oval moulding designed to accept many of the Land Rover logo badges used on or around Land Rovers over the years. Alternatively, we offer a selection of Land Rover Genuine Parts oval logos to compliment the MUD Console perfectly.

As you can see illustrated above, the MUD Console takes into consideration the demands and needs of the Defender driver whether it's purely for leisure use or competition abuse.
That's why each MUD Console comes as a blank moulding for you to create your own truly unique dashboard design based upon your own specific needs and requirements. The flexibility of the MUD Console means the design and layout permutations for your own dash centre console are endless.



Aside from being able to accept a standard DIN sized CD/Tuner head unit in either the upper or lower positions, we also gave careful consideration when designing both the mouldings within the console that they should be able accommodate the most popular dashboard additions found in Defenders today. The recesses within the MUD Console will accept the standard sized 52mm auxiliary gauges and/or the popular Durite/Eaton modular 'New Generation' switches (illustrated) as well as the Carling Technologies 'Contura II' switches found in ARB Air-Locker kits. Obviously, another advantage of us supplying the console to you as a blank moulding is that it allows you to reuse any existing switches you may already have installed in your vehicle.
Please note that the MUD Dash Console does not come with switches/gauges.

 

                              
 

The MUD Console also provides the ideal spot for mounting a CB radio. The compact  Midland 98 unit illustrated above has been mounting into the console using a dedicated Midland DIN mount. Using a DIN mount you have the choice of whether to install the CB in the upper or the location. Alternatively, the unit is strong enough to hang a standard U-shaped CB mounting bracket off the lower edge of the console.
For CB DIN mounts and all your CB related hardware and advice contact the UK's leading 4x4 CB radio specialists at Communication Eleven.
Commercial operators will also note that the MUD Console provides the perfect way of mounting the latest generation of tachograph in the Defender cabin.
