Pick my new FFRR this pm but have been informed by the dealer that there is no audio connectivity module available even though its listed in the April 2008 price list. The item code quoted is actually the freelander one. Typical Landrover do they not think that FFRR drivers listen to Ipods. They have contacted Landrover who say that one will be available shortly, but knowing them don't hold your breath. Has any one else had an equivalent item fitted if so which one. SWMBO has a Harmon kardon one in her Corsa but this has a separate control
I love landrovers but I do think that they are very slow to react to what customers want. I looked at a Q7 and X5 before i bought this car and they both had ipod units that integrated fully into the audio system so why can't landrover, even the one for the RRS and Disco 3 is only partially integrated. Wake up landrover, if these firms can offer it so can you.

So there's no AUX socket in the base of the centre cubby facing the rear seats?

I thought that was standard now?

What model have you gone for? HSE or Vogue/SE?

Yes there is an audio input so I can play it through this input but the module gives you a docking station which charges it and the steering wheel controls will change the tracks. When I picked the car up the salesman says that landrover have said that the module will be fully integrated with the screen and give track info as well which is far better than the one fitted to the RRS and disco. Its a vogue se by the way.

Just been to the dealer this am and it seems that a module is available as of today. They have received an email from LR about it and will have one in stock tomorrow. Hopefully I might get it fitted next week, will update when I have more info.

Was it sold to you as having one? Are they expected to charge you for having it fitted?

I saw it in the accessory brochure and asked for one to be fitted. I was charged for it on the invoice but when the dealer ordered the item code that was shown it turns out that the unit was the freelander one. They offered me the money back on it but in the meantime i saw that LR were now showing it on their website. On further investigation the unit became available this week, in fact I have seen it today and it will be fitted next Monday. lt seems to integrate with the touch screen, not like the disco/RRS, and gives you an MP3 icon but I didn't have time to read the booklet properly but will find out more when its fitted. It doesn't have a docking station just a cable to connect to an ipod or other MP3 devices and seems to be fitted in the glovebox. Will post more after its fitted.

Do you have the part number for the new module?

It might save the Stealer telling me a load of rubbish about nothing being available!

Sorry don't know it but it is being fitted tomorrow so will post when i have more info

Can anybody tell me if this module can be fitted to any FFRR with a touch screen or just new built 09m?

Mine is an 08 my which they are fitting it to, mind you they have had it a day and a half as they have not fitted one before. supposed to be ready this afternoon so will let you know.

Well its been fitted. There is a switch to select either CD or MP3 player. When i connect an ipod CD icons 1-5 become the first 5 playlists on the ipod and CD6 is the whole music content. Titles and artist are displayed and the steering wheel controls control the tracks. Sorry i didn't get the part number

Thanks, min is an 06my so I'll just have to ask if the hi-fi module is the same. mind you I did fit a Denison unit to SHMBO's Mini and it worked the same way so they might be the same radio module
