Hi, I believe that there is only one kit, that should lift all models, there are two different wiring harnesses included in the kit. It was 140ish from from my local dealer . . . Paul; |

I decided to fit the ipod cradle next to the radio rather than on the dash as shown in the landrover instructions. Regards Paul; |

Scott - if you are about to buy check out http://www.pentagongps.co.uk/garmin-c22.html which is where I got my 670 - seem cheapest around. They have the 610T for £168 the 660T for £212 and the new 710 for £244 which seems to be same as the 610T but with a new case design, internal (non flip-up) antenna and some updates to the nav software - wish I'd waited for these new models myself

Forgot to mention that the 660/670 fits just fine in the dash hole with no mounting required (see my gallery for a pic) until it runs out of power. |

Thinking of fitting a Nav unit too - does unit still pick up satellite signal ok in dash compared to screen mounted or do you need to add gps cable/receiver? |

Works fine buried in the dash. I guess that the signal is not as good compared with mounted on the screen but not checked as it works! Obviously this is for the Garmin units - no idea about Tom Tom etc but think there are other posts elsewhere if you do a search. |

Need to remove the rubber mat in the dash compartment first but Tom tom also fits snugly and works extremely well. |
