New to all this as I just purchased my 2002 Disco SE 2 a couple of months ago. I need a new cowl and would like to know what AB means. Is there a link or site for them? Thanks

Atlantic British. Roverparts.com. I’ve been using them for years and have spent way too much there! Great how to videos.

PickleRick, any luck with the new cowl piece? I'm also in the upstate with about 40% left of my cowling in several different pieces. I've thought about making one out of sheet aluminum, maybe CNC a mold to hammer it into... Something better than another piece of brittle plastic!

Have not had a chance to fool with it yet. Back in the middle of leaf season I got tired of pulling the blower motor to get out leaves. I took all the parts to make one then cleaned it without soap/water/alcohol. I then cleaned and glued them together. To complete the quick repair I covered the topside with a layer of finely overlapping black gorilla tape.

I'm nearly completed with my daily driver 87 Toyota 4 runner TDI conversion build. Lake season also keeps me busy with keeping the boat cleaned all summer long.

Once I'm done with the 4 runner and the boat is up for the year I'll get back to the little lady's disco build. I still have plenty of work to do along with her 2.5 Mercedes 602 turbo diesel that's going in it. For now it's still her 30 mile a day fuel guzzling daily driver.
