The MUD Defender Roof Console offers a unique storage solution for the Land Rover Defender in providing additional overhead roof storage as well as a Single DIN provision in one unit. The MUD Defender Roof Console fits all Defenders except sunroof equipped models. The fixing method does not require removal or cutting of the headlining or sun visors. The MUD Defender Roof Console is supplied with all fixings, interior lamp extension loom and full fitting instructions
The MUD Defender Roof Console comes in three individually designed pieces to make the most of the overhead space. The centre section has been designed to hold any DIN sized application aswell as relocating the original interior light. With the two side sections designed to hold anything from maps to sunglasses.
The MUD Roof Console is also available in Black to match the XS model headlining in the later Tdci/Puma Defenders.
The MUD Defender Roof Console is supplied with a DIN blanking panel but the central binnacle will fit any DIN sized accessory such as the DIN Pocket pictured below. Whilst the two storage pockets are large enough to store maps, documents and magazines.
We can now also offer a world first! A Carling Switch Mount to fit any DIN Sized holed, pictured below with Carling Contura II Switches and Carling V Switch Rockers.
The central binnacle will also accept a Single DIN sized accessory such as a Stereo, CB/HAM radio or even a digital Tachograph.
There is no standard depth for a DIN unit therefore you may have to cut into the headlining in order to create the depth behind the roof console fascia for your DIN head unit. Please check depth of DIN sized unit before purchase. We recommend fitting the slimest unit possible.
When installing a CB radio we recommend using the TTI TCB900 unit. This compact DIN sized CB unit is currently the shallowest CB head unit on the market and will require no cutting of the headlining in order to install it within the Defender Roof-Console. You can purchase the TTI TCB900 from our friends at 4x4cb.com
To create a product where the fit and finish was vital, MUD-UK teamed up with a design team who work with the UK car and aerospace manufacturing industries. Using the latest CAD software, the moulding is finished off using CNC machinery to ensure an OE level fit and finish to the product.
Will the MUD Defender Roof Console fit my vehicle?
The MUD Defender Roof Console has been designed to fit all post 1983 Defender models without a sunroof and with a factory headlining.
If you have a non factory headlining it is unlikely it will fit without modification of the headlining (please see the dimensions provided below).
If you have a Series vehicle, again it is unlikely it will fit without modification.
Will the MUD Defender Roof Console fit a Truck Cab?
Yes and No!
The Roof Console was not desinged to fit a truck cab, but it can be made to fit. The two major differences are pictured below.
1. The centre fastening point does not have a rib to fasten into, you can either leave the centre hole blank or fasten into the headlining.
2. The curvature of the roof console does not match the curvature of the headlining in a truck cab, please see picture below.
The MUD Defender Roof Console is a Registered Design (4029350)

We know that when you shop online you want your order as soon as possible. Choose DHL shipping in the checkout and order before 2pm then you’ll get your stuff the next working day.
On smaller items we also offer a 2nd Class postage service. This normally takes 2-3 working days to show up at your door. If you’re in a rush go for the DHL option for a fully tracked service.
Big Stuff! Unfortunately, our Side Panels, Bulkhead Bars and longer lengths of Cargo Tracking are too big for DHL to handle. We generally use UPS or Fed-Ex but that’s on an ad-hoc basic so you need to order before 12 to get a next day service.
We charge the same rate to any UK address, which includes Highlands and Islands and Northern Ireland. We do this because we think its unfair to charge more just because you live remotely, lets be honest if we could, we’d live there too. In exchange please be patient if your parcel takes more than one day to arrive.
European Shipping
We use DHL to ship to all our European customers, this can range from a 1-5 working day service. The good news is most parcels arrive within 3 days of shipping. If you’re lucky enough to live in France, Germany or Belgium you might even get your parcel the next day.
Once you’ve ordered DHL will be in touch by email with tracking details. If you’ve chosen Royal Mail shipping then you should receive your parcel in around 10 working days (note this can be up to 28 working days).
VAT Numbers: If you have a VAT & EORI number please contact us before you check out.
Important information for customers within the European Union
Following the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union there have been changes to import and export practices. Customers within the EU will no longer pay UK Tax.
When the parcel arrives within your country you may be liable to pay both local VAT, import duty and admin charges. Please do not ask us to estimate the cost of any additional costs once the parcel has the left the UK. These charges are levied locally, they will vary from country to country.
As the buyer you are responsible for paying these charges, which must be paid before your goods are delivered. If you decline to pay the charges then the goods will be returned to us. Goods returned as a result of payment failure will be refunded. Please note we can only refund the cost of your original order. Delivery costs will not be refunded. Refused parcels may also levy re-entry fees into the UK, they will also be deducted from your refund. If you are thinking of rejecting a parcel due to customs charges, we strongly recommend you contact us first before you reject the parcel.
If you require further information, we recommend contacting your local tax office.
Please Note: If you live in The Alps or somewhere equally beautiful and hard to get to, we might have to use DPD or TNT to deliver. They should be just as quick.
USA & Canada Shipping
American & Canadian customers can expect a 2-3 working day service with DHL, depending on whether your East or West Coast. DHL will be in touch via email with all the info you need once you’ve placed your order.
Rest of the World Shipping
The good news is we ship to pretty much everywhere (we don’t ship to Russia, sorry!).
The best service to choose is DHL, most parcels are delivered within 4 working days. This service is fully tracked and DHL will email you with all the details as soon as they’ve collected your ‘stuff’
If your parcel is light enough, you’ll be offered Royal Mail shipping in the checkout process. This will be delivered locally by your nearest post office. We’ve found that some countries have better postal systems than others. It can take up to 20 working days for post to arrive, so if you are in a rush please choose DHL in the checkout.
Customs & Duties
All packages imported to your country may be subject to customs, taxes or other fees. You are responsible for all applicable customs, duties, taxes and fees charged by your government.
We cannot guarantee that you will or will not be charged any customs taxes or duties.
If you’re worried about possible charges please contact your country's customs office prior to purchasing for respective charges and rates on packages coming from outside of your country.
If you decline parcels locally due to customs duty/tax charges then the goods will be returned to ourselves. Note this will incur further charges which we will debit from your refund, this can often be more than the original customs charges so we would advise you not to do this. If you have made a mistake with your order/ cannot pay the import duty charges then please get in contact with us and we will try to work out the best way forward for you.
Note: Please don’t ask us to declare your goods as a gift, or to value your items at less than they are worth. We’d love to be able to help you out, but we don’t want to end up in jail!
