Im new to the LR scene. Where does everybody buy their parts from? Which company has the best selection, best prices, and best customer service? I would like to buy acouple things like a rubber mat for the rear compartment, spare tire cover, and running boards.

On the web, check out,
Atlantic British
Expedition Exchange
DAP
Rover Connection
Discount Rover
That will give you some places to look, and don't blame me if you blow your budget.

It really varies by part. Another good one is Motorcars, LTD.

What specifically are you looking for? No one sells all the Rover parts, but everyone sells some popular parts and lots of aftermarket parts that can sometime be better and less expensive.
You have to go shopping.

For immediate need I have a cracked rear upper tail light cover that I want to replace. I don't remember the exact number but last time I asked the dealer it was more expensive than I thought.

Also as my 03 Disco gets older and out of warranty there are other OE maintenance items I'll need to pick up (hopefully not too many).

Check out DAP, Rover Connection and Atlantic British for their brake specials.
As for that tail light, that is going to pretty much be a dealer item unless you find someone parting out a Rover.
