Unhappy Junk Yard?

Can anyone recommend a good yard in the Los Angeles area? We need to find a few things, including the glove compartment lock.

Thnxz

decided to buy it did you..

He's not local but Paul Grant here on LRO does a big trade in the used parts business. He can be reached by pm on the forum or paulgrant@mac.com

you can also try will tillery #1 Community For Land Rover Owners - The Rover Guy

Both are great have good prices and excellent customer service.

Thanks!!
Yes!! After 2 full days weighing the pros and cons, we decided to jump on it. It needs a lot of TLC, but I think once all is said and done, it should look like a beautiful BANANA!!
We're still trying to solve this issue of the start though... =(

If you don't mind my asking, how much did you end up paying?

Here is another place that's fairly local to Los Angeles whose parts are inexpensive for a regular parts supplier (not a junk yard) and I take it that you already have a RAVE CD?

Land Rover parts and Accessories specialists

Yes, we downloaded the Rave CD. Thanks!

We payed [actually will pay tomorrow] the full $4K. Like I said, no bargaining at all in this case... it was a "take it or leave it situation" and after getting so involved -thanks to these forums- we decided to take the challenge a give new life to the Discovery. It is indeed a SX, like I said, and aside from tons of dirt, it's not in bad shape at all. I'll post pics soon!!
We're excited with this new adventure! Our kids even more so!! I just wish we could solve this mystery of the start problem... nothing shows wrong in the ACTRON tool we also got today...
