Fitted mine myself without any real problems, despite a certain amount of nerves when cutting away bits of the speedo surround and drilling a hole in it to fit the ipod mount.

Obviously didn't get the links right - Obviously much harder than modifying the car |

Fixed the links for you (don't think the ownersinfo fully works)

Once you have pulled off the speaker cover on the middle of the dashboard and the little tray below the screen the rest mostly unscrews (Torx fixings) Once these are out you do have to pull off the surround bit of the center console but that was pretty easy. The rest wasn't hard, all the wiring just plugs in and it all went back together ok. No squeeks or rattles.

As you have an HSE they may fit inside your spare rim in the wheel well. Smaller wheeled specs may struggle ![]() |

Would be a pain in a Disco as you would have to wind the spare down with its winch every time you wanted to change tunes ![]() |

I did it about a month ago and the install isn't too bad. Very expensive though, approx $400 US.
