(Standard Binnacle £82.50 including vat, Deluxe Binnacle £92.50 including vat, Switch Plate £7.20 including vat)
A direct replacement for the poor plastic original RHD Binnacle that is broken in many Land Rovers.
The Standard Unit is made from steel with a black powder coat finish. (Image 1 – main image). If you choose to go with the Standard Unit a Bezel in anodised black or silver may be purchased at a later date if required.
For those of you with a Raptor Console or those wishing to upgrade, a Deluxe version is available with an anodised aluminium bezel, available in Black or Silver to match and complement your existing Raptor Console (Images 2 & 3). It is also aesthetically pleasing and gives your gauges a slightly recessed look.

Image 6 – Optional Switch Plate. This is the replacement for the original Switch Plate located down at your right knee in a Defender, available in anodised silver or black. The hole cut-outs are: 31mm height, 23mm width. Please note this Switch Plate is not suitable or available for Carling/Carling Type Switches.
PLEASE NOTE THAT BOTH THE STANDARD AND DELUXE MODELS DO NOT INCLUDE THE GAUGES ETC.
Although this Binnacle will connect to the original Plastic Binnacle Mount in your Landrover we highly recommend the use of the steel Raptor Binnacle Mount.
No more rattling dashboards, no more broken plastic tabs.
IMPORTANT READ THIS
Around the year 2000 (as early as 1998 and as late as 2002) Landrover fitted both pre and post 2000 Binnacles especially NAS.
If your Binnacle has the 2 screws holding the warning light cluster in from the front (arrowed in main picture) you need a pre-2000 regardless of the year or registration.
If your Binnacle doesn’t have the 2 screws and the cluster is fitted from the back you need a post-2000 regardless of the year of registration. Please note our steel replacement does not have the heater/fan illumination.
PLEASE NOTE: If you wish to purchase the Raptor Binnacle BEZEL ONLY, they are available here >

Bought the metal dash binnacle after buying 2 plastic ones in a few years which the lugs snapped off. The metal one isn’t far off the price of the plastic rubbish! One first class piece of kit. Well made and even has the heater control decals, the speed clips and screws to fit it. Would recommend this to any owner, very very good product, expectations exceeded!! Steve, Wirral.

Bought a mount a few months again and recently bought the binnacle, both extremely good quality well engineered. They made a big difference to the looks of the vehicle dash. Would throughly recommend these products to any one
. First class all round. Well done Raptor!

Bought both this and the mount to replace the usual broken items in my Defender, and am very impressed with both. Quality is first rate, fit perfectly and transform the look of the clocks. No more broken lugs, no more rattles and no more clocks half hanging off. Top notch bit of kit !

Fantastic direct replacement for original, great quality and finish that blends well with the dash. Only disappointment was that the supplementary dial blanking plate is too loose a fit in the aperture and needs to be fixed with a bead of black instant gasket, or you can always fit a volt meter as I plan to do. Despite this minor shortcoming this product still warrants a five star rating as it is such a vast improvement over the weak and brittle original land rover item.

Bought with the new mount. Screws together nicely and all the gauges sit properly once transferred across. This really is a quality item which lifts the interior and stops rattles from the dash.

A fantastic bit of kit and engineering, I also bought the binnacle mount which is worth the extra cost. I finished it off with the silver facia and stainless bolts. Really is the business and a highly recommended upgrade/ replacement from the old plastic binnacle.
