Going used...
Roverguy.com - Will Tillery. Check and see if he has one. If he does, his prices are very fair and when I've used him he has gotten them to me far earlier than anticipated. If he doesn't have one, look into PTSchram or Paul Grant.

I was advised that I need a DCU as well, but I don't think that you can just get one from another vehicle. According to the dealership, the DCU's are VIN specific. So, the only way for you to have a fully functioning one is by buying through them.

Here is a site I use alot to find used parts: Search Results

As far as it working: I have seen some that swap out ecu's and they run just fine, and others have had to take the new-used one to the dealer to have all the adaptive memory erased because the ecu thought it was still in the old vehicle it came out of.

Check with your dealer and see if they will deal with that, as I have heard some dealers wont touch it as soon as you say you threw in a used ecu.
