Question Help finding STC1436 Lucas ignition lock

Advertised on "miamibritish.com" site as STC1436 Lucas [made in Taiwan] for $219.08/ phone isn't answered/ need for servicing primarily Disco I & II failed ignition locks/ QRF000080H is discontinued/ BRITPART STC1435 works but is full of disadvantages to numerous to list/ please help with source on Lucas lock. Would even be interested in a new/ used/ no key/ broke/ out of box unit as all we know is what is pictured on Miami's site and it looks good compared to the alternatives ! Thanks tom [Autotec].
UPDATE...Kept calling Miami British & finally got a man who said he was parts. They don't have the advertised STC1436 Lucas in stock & MAY receive more in a month. Anyone know a source anywhere? It's not listed on the BRITPART site.The interlock is important in my humble opinion, if you turn off your engine on an A/T equipped disco 2 that has the STC1435 retrofitted & fail to put the truck in park, your truck can roll. The original design Valeo QRF000080H won't allow you to turn back to extract your key unless you have first put your console shift in park. Am i missing something here? The STC1436 Lucas has a solenoid like the Valeo.This should be front page good news for '98 to '04 disco owners with A/T !! My position as a vehicle locksmith who has worked on many of these in my 40 yrs, is finally hope for a reasonable fix compared to a risky alternative[we have replaced 3 Valeo's with BRITPART ignitions]. If these are made in Taiwan can someone who lives there respond to this need? Thanks tom [Autotec].

Used will have the same problems eventually. Sourcing in Europe has become a bit less expensive...but still expensive.
