I know some newer canadian model vehicles do not have passenger side airbags (Miatas come to mind) and have dash finishers installed instead. Do canadian disco's have passenger side airbags or did this only apply to 2 seater vechiles?

I'm looking to utilize the the dash space behind the pass. airbag to mount some fuse terminals and gauges. Is there a dash cover for a non-airbag disco II?

Non airbag Discos provided a large grab handle in place of the airbag on passenger side

Yup, they have airbags on both sides.

Paul - how does the Trek Disco measure up to your D1?

Hi Alan

Spent a great deal of time in both, i give the edge to my D1 over the Trek. However i think that a D2 with CDL & ETC is a great combo...on the other hand shorter wheel base D1.
