Maybe joe. I'm on the ipad and such down loading is strictly forbidden by the apple gods...
Anyhow, I went ahead and had a crack at it. It wasn't that hard to be fair.
Remove the cubby liner (2 screws and some jiggling at the back with a plastic pry)
Remove the two screws under that.
Remove the side panels (piano back in my case) prise from the bottom out and up.
Undo the two screws this reveals
Remove the small oblong plastic panel under the clock (pops off)
Take out the two screws this reveals
Then pop it up from the cubby end, out of the pry clips and lift.
I didn't take the gear lever off, just manoeuvred it around it. Lift the panel whilst disconnecting all electrical connections. From memory these were
Two on cigar lighter. One on handbrake. One under buttons for terrain. One under gear indicator and the last under the M + - lights.
Six screws then hold the metal coloured bit down.
Fitted the new one, put it back together and .... Didn't work. Standard. The terrain response just faulted and wouldn't adjust. Took it apart again, checked connections and decided it needed coding to the car. Couldn't be arsed with that so swapped over internal electrics keeping all the new buttons and wheel.
Reassemble and hey presto! Works fine!
Mine was only cosmetic which is why i was able to swap the gubbins over. Looks great now with a shiny gear thingy!
Also, forgot to mention, the part was £45 on eBay. New genuine parts. My Previous RR's!
