    Hey Terry. Check your mailbox.

    Old timer thread got me wondering, what Rover got you onto Discoweb?

    1997 Discovery SE, purchased new from Zumbach (NYC) in 1997. Still my main vehicle, though in the city we don't use it much during the week. 230,000 miles and it runs great. We bought it before my wife and I were married, brought both our kids home from the hospital (2002 & 2003), many fun...

    I have one, but I gotta ask...why? Plumb female RCA plugs the line between the CD player and the head unit. Tap power from the CD player. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08GF5K6TF?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details Install female RCA plugs to the wires in the main CD cable for pin 1,2,3 & 4...

    Pressure test coolant system

    Most work by removing the cap from the coolant reservoir and attaching the air pump where the cap would be. Kits generally come with various cap sizes to accommodate multiple vehicles. Once attached, pressurize the system to 15lbs and wait for leaks to reveal themselves.

    True 3000K LED Headlight Bulbs

    I LOVE this idea. I bought Auxbeam "H4/9003 LED Headlight Bulbs 44W 8000LM Q10 Series". They work well but I don't care for the blue light. How many watts for your bulbs?

    Nice Looking 2003 D2 Low Mileage - No Reserve Auction!

    Blue, that was me. There is a lot of lipstick on that frame and they are calling it 'rust free'. I'd like to see a pic of the frame rails on either side of the gas tank before I'd bid but I'm not that interested so I'm not gonna pee on the parade.

    99 D2 running rough after coil pack replacement

    It wouldn't be out of character for me to initially hook the spark wires incorrectly. Worth a check.

    A pillar grab handle

    Are you looking for one in addition to the one above the passenger door window? (affectionately know as the "oh $hit" handle)

    Does the 1996 have OBDII? Or did that start in 1997?

    driver's door lock actuator? or spring?

    OK. Can the driver's door actuator be replaced with an generic 2-wire unit from Amazon ($20), or is this a $300 issue?

    driver's door lock actuator? or spring?

    Driver's side front door lock appears to be dead. No movement whatsoever when using the fob. All other locks operate as intended. Using a key will lock and unlock the door and the other doors follow. Is this a 'change the little spring in the mechanism" issue (I already have the springs), or a...

    RRC owners/lovers: Please share details of your reference RRC stereo system upgrade

    FWIW, I simply added a new drivers and a 250W amp to the subwoofer and it sounds pretty darn good in a D1. I also have aftermarket (Pyle) 4" drivers in the D pillars. Front door mids and tweeters are stock.
