Upgrade Your Land Rover Defender with a Large 11.4″ PiVi Pro Touchscreen Retrofit Kit

For Land Rover Defender L663 owners looking to enhance their in-car experience, upgrading to a larger touchscreen is a popular modification. Many desire the expansive display of the 11.4″ or even the 13.1″ PiVi Pro infotainment system. If you’ve been researching options to retrofit a larger screen, you’ll be interested to learn about a solution that simplifies the process and potentially saves you money.

Based on insights from Summer Automotive’s retrofit demonstrations, a kit is available that provides the necessary components, even if you prefer to source your own screen. After inquiries with Summer Auto and Zhous Automotive, it appears they are connected, with Zhous offering a specific SKU designed for those wanting to perform this upgrade without purchasing a screen directly from them. This is excellent news for those who may already have a screen in mind or want to explore different sourcing options.

Zhous Automotive has created a retrofit kit, SKU Zhous-41, specifically for the 13.1 INCH MASSIVE SCREEN RANGE ROVER DESIGN FOR DEFENDER (EXCEPT FOR THE SCREEN). This kit includes the essential wiring harness adapter and brackets required for installation. While initially designed for the 13.1” screen, it is reported to be compatible with the 11.4″ L663 PiVi Pro Touchscreen as well, though a minor bracket modification might be needed for the larger 13.1″ display, as noted in Summer Auto’s videos. It’s still being investigated if the bracket design eliminates the need to modify the dash trim pieces behind the screen.

For those interested in obtaining this kit without the screen, contacting Jeffery, the Sales Manager at Zhous Automotive ([email protected]), is recommended to get a personalized quote. The price for the kit (SKU: Zhous-41) excluding the screen was quoted at US$420 EXW, with express shipping costing US$159.4, bringing the total to US$579.4.

Here’s a look at the complete kit, which includes the screen. The SKU mentioned above allows you to purchase everything pictured here, minus the screen itself:
