Also would anyone have any pictures of it handy?

There are a few different styles of Nav. It depends on what model year. Are you having problems?   Stuart H (Disco_stu) New Member Username: Disco_stu Post Number: 16 Registered: 06-2003 Posted on Wednesday, October 08, 2003 - 09:09 am:    Well I am not really having any trouble. I have installed an Alpine navigation unit in my DiscoII, but I am having some antenna issues. My brother in law has a 2000 Range Rover with factory Nav, so I wanted to see how the antenna was setup in that vehicle. Both of these units are based on the Navtech system, so I wanted to see if there is a possibility of using the same type of antenna hookup on mine.

If so can you give me a small description of what the antenna itself looks like?

You should see a raised "bump" along there where is where the antenna lives.   Mike M (Rangeroverhp) Member Username: Rangeroverhp Post Number: 41 Registered: 09-2003 Posted on Sunday, November 16, 2003 - 06:48 pm:    The trim piece between the windscreen and the bonnet is called the cowl. Actually.
