Dash Top Trim Piece for Land Rover Defender 1987-2006
Revitalise your vehicle's interior with our premium Dashboard Top Trim Panel. Positioned directly at the base of the windscreen, the dash top is the most exposed interior component in a Defender, frequently suffering from severe sun damage, warping, and "foam rot" over decades of use. This replacement trim restores the crisp, clean lines of your dashboard, providing a professional finish to your cabin restoration.
Structural & Aesthetic Restoration Our dash top trim is engineered to match the original factory profile for Defenders produced between 1987 and 2006. It serves as the primary finishing piece that ties the upper dashboard assembly together. Whether your original has cracked due to UV exposure or has become soft and misshapen, this high-quality replacement ensures your interior looks as rugged and refined as the day it left the factory.
Durable, Heat-Resistant Build Unlike older foam-backed units that tend to degrade and peel, this panel is manufactured from modern, automotive-grade materials designed to handle extreme temperature fluctuations. The UV-stabilized surface prevents fading and maintains its structural integrity even in the harshest climates, ensuring it won't warp or "bubble" over time.
Key Features:
- Direct Factory Replacement: Designed to fit the classic Defender dashboard layout perfectly.
- UV Stabilized: Engineered to resist the cracking and fading caused by constant exposure to direct sunlight.
- Factory-Correct Finish: Features a textured surface that matches the original interior aesthetic of the Tdi and TD5 eras.
- Improved Longevity: Constructed from materials superior to the original soft-foam composites, preventing future sagging or peeling.
- Professional Appearance: Eliminates unsightly dashboard cracks and provides a solid foundation for the dash-top vents.
- Allows you to fit larger dash heater vents into earlier dash top types.
Technical Specifications:
- Compatibility: Fits Land Rover Defender 90, 110, and 130.
- Model Years: 1987–2006 (Pre-Puma/TDCi).
- Fitment: Suitable for both Right Hand Drive (RHD) and Left Hand Drive (LHD) configurations.
- Availability: Exclusively available through Masai 4x4.
Installation Note: Installing a new dash top is a great opportunity to inspect your windscreen vents and the condition of the upper bulkhead. We recommend taking care when removing the original plastic finishers and vents to ensure they can be reinstalled securely. Using new, high-quality fixings will ensure a tight, rattle-free fit against the dashboard rail.

18 to 300 watts and up to 24,000 lumens LEDs. High intensity Epistar LEDs are energy-efficient compared to filament or halogen lights and CREE LEDs are even more powerful and energy-efficient than Epistar LEDs. If you're running additional lights off a switched off engine, then high-efficiency HID and LED lights will drain the battery slower than traditional filament or halogen lights.
About Masai
Automotive Engineering since 1953
Masai is a retail brand name of our design and manufacturing company Omega Automotive Ltd, owned and managed by the Kuman family based in England and Turkey. Since 1953, a passion for automotive engineering has flowed through 3 generations of the Kuman family.
We are specialists in Windows, Metal Fabrication, Lighting, Vehicle Instrumentation, Suspension, Rubber and Cooling. We also manufacture and supply to many automotive companies around the world. See all our products on our other website at Masai.co. Or stay on this website and see them here.
We have facilities in two of Europe’s long established centres of automotive engineering - Istanbul, Turkey - manufacturing, and The Midlands UK (Lichfield) - our Northern European distribution centre.
There's been a growing demand over recent years for vehicle lighting which consumes less power and is far longer lasting than conventional filament bulbs.
LED lights very much meet that need, and for the same power consumption will produce greater luminosity and a whiter light. Recognising that, we have sourced high-quality LED and HID vehicle lights from around the world and will be bringing further ranges over the coming years.
High intensity Epistar LEDs are energy-efficient compared to filament or halogen lights and CREE LEDs are even more powerful and energy-efficient than Epistar LEDs.
If you’re running additional lights off a switched off engine, then high-efficiency HID and LED lights will drain the battery slower than traditional filament or halogen lights.
The circular light you see below is a 4-inch LED work light producing 2,150 lumens at 27 watts with 9 Epistar LEDs. It can be fitted to a wide range of commercial and domestic vehicles.
