    African Safaris

    I've decided (after a few beverages) that the wife and I need to take a trip worth some cash. The only two trips that I consider spending the big bucks on is Egypt or safari in Africa. Can anyone point me in a good safari direction? I've looked around but everything seems hit or miss. Who is...

    Heater Core leak an A/C

    I think I have a heater core leak as I have the typical wet pass side floor. I've checked all of the drains and typical stuff. I know that I shouldn't have a problem if I maintain and watch the coolant levels. Since it's getting hotter, can the A/C be used without some type of big-time...

    At wits end with stereo install...

    I purchased a pioneer radio from Crutchfield and it came harnesses that connect to the LR harnesses. Of course I tossed the speaker harnesses and chose to run new spkr wire. When I did all of this (in 05) I ran into problems with the constant power and switched power from the grey plug from...

    Center console and seat swtiches

    I'm looking for a nice tan center console with seat switches for a 97 D1. I'm looking for the console to be in nice shape with no drill holes or scrapes. I need the seat switches to be in normal shape and working when removed. My current seat switches were "caulked" on my the po. I'm in...

    What do you think? NEW ENGINE

    So I take my 97 Disco in to the lr stealership for an oil change (I cannot perform at my place due to regulations where I live plus it's easier/conv) and I have the gurgling behind the dash. I guessed that I had a bad heater core, low on coolant, or clogged drained. I asked the dealer to...

    Center Dash Pod Removal

    Is it possible to removed the facia (black plastic trim) around the head unit and a/c controls without doing the work to remove the whole dash? I'd like to get behind the trim to tidy up some wiring and attempt to fix the driver's side temp control knob as mine is stuck pointing around 11...

    Battery Cut-off Switch

    Since gas and reliability are 1 and 2 on my 70 mile round trip to work list, I haven't been driving my 97D1 around except on the weekends. I screwed up and let the battery go dead (some sort of drain due to a botched after-market radio install). I'm considering installing a battery cut-off...

    Temp Control Knob D1

    Is there a way to remove the black part of the dash around the a/c controls? The knob that controls the driver's (lh) side of the climate control has become stuck at around the 11 o'clock position and won't go al the way to 8 o'clock for full cold. It pumps out anything but nice cold air. Of...

    D1 Driver's Side (Left) Climate Control Knob

    :banghead: Anyone ever have the climate control knobs on a D1 stick? My knob is stuck pointing to around the 11 o'clock position. This sucks because it makes my a/c blow warm air while the passenger enjoys ice cold air. Any tips or tricks to this before I go ripping things out? I've tried...

    Switched Power/electrical issues

    I chose to install a Pioneer cd player and Ipod controller in my 97D1. I'm using the crutchfield harness for the power/switched power/ground but I've completely re-wired for speakers. I've checked the fuses inside (not under hood) and all looks good. I now have no overhead lights (above...

    Radio Re-wire

    Ok, so I tried the splicing business into my LR headunit to do the switch for IPOD (courtesy of RR.net) with nothing to show except for chopped wiring and a receipt for the purchase of a new aftermarket head unit. I tried the business with the OEM-2 adaptor to for the ground issue with no...

    Gear Selector

    Anyone ever have the round "thing" fall through the black plastic hole on the gear selector? The round plastic piece seems to be some sort of pivot. The black round piece has a black square bottom on it that appears to have two silver colored tabs on it. It ends up leaving a gaping hole...

    Vertical Accessory Power Socket

    has anyone installed a vertical accessory power socket on top of their dash or on the console? I'd like another outlet in the truck up front. I was curious if clearance was an issue. I'm not concerned about the wiring. Post pics if possible. Thanks.

    IPOD connections

    I've performed the search over and over. I have a question for the gurus out there. I know that there are no pre-98 D1 adaptors for adding an ipod to a factory hu. Are there any other cars/trucks that have the same head units/systems but simply stickered with thier respective manufacturer...

    head unit

    Is the connection to from the factory radio to the factory changer a 13pin DIN plug? I have a 97 D1. The 94-98s have Pioneer system head units right? I'm determined to connect my IPOD via the changer connection. I don't care about controls I just want a "direct connect" and not a modulated...

    Heated Seats

    I have a 97 SE D1. I pulled off the plate around the window switches on the console. I found plugs for what look like heated seat option. Does anyone know if all 97s came with heated seats? Thanks
