I'm looking to replace my dashboard. It was RHD and then was converted to LHD using the same dash, so it's a bit buggered. Does RN carry all the bits for a LHD dashboard?

Which year is your vehicle?
We can get most of the dash components for all years.

It is a 83 ex MoD, from what I understand (from UK forums) Everything up to the TD5 will fit with slight to no modification. I don't know if NAS bits will work though.
I would prefer a newer model with A/C vents if the price is right

The AC Dash (What the NAS dash is refered to) is on an entirely different bulkhead, and will only go on that bulkhead. It is the only dash/bulkhead arrangement where there are NO scuttle vents below the windshield. in the bulkhead.Originally Posted by D110
Europeans have air conditioning too.
The three position Lucas switch -- Dim, Flicker, and Off.
That is not the dash refered to as the AC dash. AC was optional on '94, '95 & '97 NASD90s also, but is not 'IN DASH).
The dash refered to as the AC dash, is that on a NAS 110, and 'IN DASH (as opposed to under dash) AC used in ROW (not GB, or any other RHD countries)
The heater and Evap coil is a single unit in AC DASH vehicles, and is all under bonnet. The heater and EVAP coil are serperate (Heater under Bonnet, Evap coil in Pass. footwell) on all other vehicles (nonAC dash).
The biggest difference in an AC Dash truck, and a standard truck with AC is the Bulkhead is solid on AC Dash, and all others have Scuttle vents (As all proper Land Rovers have had since the series 2).
The biggest problem in the AC dash was the lousy pneumatic controls and tiny tubes, all vacuum operated. It was also very cheap and flimsy looking, and you gave up the parcel shelf (where spare changes, old peanut shells, nuts, bolts and screws that have come loose, and small tools get forgotten.
I was told that some 110s sold in Japan were AC dash, but I don't believe this is correct, I think the AC dash was only built as a LHD version. I believe it was a very shortlived version, Something like 92-94.
