Hi everybody and Merry Christmas.

Here is my Christmas gift to all my amazing friends on this forum. You might remember that I had a problem with my drivers side window regulator a couple of months back. Well I found the part cheap on Ebay and the guy has other stuff for Discos (and other cars). Here is the story and the link for those that might be interested in saving a few bucks.

I went to ebay and found the front drivers side regulator listed with a "buy it now" price of 60 bucks. BUT it also said "Make an offer". Because my window was still kind of working (and because I am still kind of broke) I offered 40 bucks. They accepted.

The regulator came quickly and well packaged and WITH the motor. I was blown away because these are 125 bucks at Roverland parts WITHOUT the motor. So I fixed my window for 40 bucks and now have an extra motor to sell that go for 59 bucks on Roverland and more than 40 bucks on ebay a lot of the time. I got paided to fix my Rover?!?!?

The guy has other stuff to. Here is a link to Land Rover stuff on his store on Ebay. It looks like he has several Discos (and other makes) that he is parting out so there is a lot of things to buy...just please don't buy the stuff I'm going to need in the future haha.

Take care everybody and thanks for all the help you've been to me in 09.

PS Make sure you use the "make an offer" option. Like I said, my window reg was listed at 60 bucks and he accepted 40 bucks on my first try. I wonder if he would have gone lower?

 

Thanks for the link
