Default The Best of Both Worlds: Nav & Gages

Has anyone here heard of a place called the Driven Man:

Jaguar XK8 and XKR Interior Fittings-Miscellaneous Accessories - The Driven Man - Specialty Auto Performance Parts & Accessories

It seems that they do custom work on Jags and, while their site does not have a lot of information, I found the attached photo. It appears that they will create a custom dash panel with space for both the Nav screen and three gages. As I said, the best of both worlds. I fired off an email to them asking for more information but wanted to see if anyone here had any experience with them.

Mark,

Their site is definitely light on info.

The photo you attached only goes to a link for the polished aluminium instrument rings and nothing more on that very interesting combination dash centre.

Be interesting to see what they come back with in response to your eMail.

Looks a bit of a mess, IMHO.

I hear back from them and it's not their product; just happened to be on a customer's car. Since the car in the photo is a RHD, I suspect it's DesignXKR; it looks like their work. I was hoping that we had someone in the US that did this kind or work.
