    Britpart Lynx

    Anyone else have a Britpart Lynx interface? It is nice to be able to sync key fobs. I disabled the immobilization but then it would crank but not start. Came back a couple days later and it started right up. Thought maybe we could compare notes.

    Driver door lock plastic ring

    The plastic ring that actuated the door lock from the tumbler is broken so I can't lock or unlock with a key. Probably a unicorn unless I buy the whole latch assembly but I thought I'd ask anyway if anyone knows where to get one. Picture attached...

    My 96 return fuel line is toasty and leaking. Anybody tried the Dormann nylon fuel line and fittings? Looks way easier than routing new steel line especially for a return.

    what to do with old block

    Short blocked my 96 disco. I had it torn all the way down and a couple cylinders were over 8 thou out of round. Since they were all B pistons I was kind of stuck.
