Does anyone make a product that would convert this empty space into a usable space for sunglasses or nicknacks?

Have any of you done some kind of home modifications?

I replaced the battery in my 99 Disco II last weekend. Everything was fine until today. I drove for about 3 miles and all fault lights came on when I shut off the engine. I tried restarting it and then the engine wouldn't shut off until I stepped on the brake?? When it was running everything was fine and acted normal. I drove it home and disconnect the battery so it wouldn't run down. I was afraid something bad would happen if I left it hooked up.
Is this the computer going nuts? or something like that. If it is the conputer what is involved in putting in a new one?
Did the battery change have anything to do with this?

I've been looking but can't find this, is there a part number for this? I'm rebuilding my drive shaft and this part is missing.

The battery was dead and had to jump start the truck prior to me bringing it in so everything was cleared out and 2. I had a amber "service engine soon" light illuminated. This was the first time I have ever had to run any emissions testing on any vehicle so I was unsure of the process. I though they would just put a sniffer in the tail pipe and that was it. Hooked up my ODBII reader and received two codes (P1412, P1415). The codes cleared once I replaced the SAI solenoid so the "service engine soon" light is gone and my OBDII scanner is not showing any codes. I was advised by the tech, since the battery was dead, to drive the Rover around for a while for the all the sensors to get a reading and come back. I have since put about 150 miles on the truck and the Evaporative System and Secondary Air System still have not gotten a reading as both monitors are flashing on my OBDII reader. Is this a sign of a bigger problem? Is there any tricks to get these two sensors to read? Or is this just a case where I just need to drive the truck some more and everything will be fine? ]]> Discovery Series II ChristopherJB http://www.LRRForums.com/showthread.php?21267-Issues-with-passing-emissions-testing Driver Seat Lost Power D2 2004 http://www.LRRForums.com/showthread.php?21263-Driver-Seat-Lost-Power-D2-2004&goto=newpost Wed, 02 May 2012 23:47:00 GMT I have an 04 D2.

Yesterday I got in it and the Driver seat worked great. Today I got in it and it wont move. None of the power functions work on the seat.

I have checked all the fuses under the dash, under the hood and under the driver seat.

It appears that there is no power to the fuse block under the seat.

Where should I start to look or check for the reason why there is not power to the seat? All plugs seem to be connected under the seat as well.

I know you can buy premade kits form the UK but it will take forever and I need it soon going wheeling in a week. The stock tubing is 6mm outside diameter and 4mm inside diameter and it is a nylon plastick. Any ideas? My rear breathers are super low they barely come up to the top of the back tire. I know that I shouldn't go higher than that, I already found that out the hard way.

I checked lines etc and swapped o2 the sensor is still not reading.
What he did was took all 4 wires for the o2 and twisted them together then shoved them in a frame rail.

So I've narrowed it down to a bad pin out on the ecu and with 6 days till smog I ordered a ecu and bcm matched pair to swap in so i can have a functioning set and run it without reprogramming.

Kind of down to the wire chasing stuff so i was told that a matched ecu/becm from same vehicle should hook up and run fine.

Disconnect battery/remove both replace and reconnect. ]]> Discovery Series II bullcrew http://www.LRRForums.com/showthread.php?21246-swapping-ecu-and-bcm-program-or-not scotzman http://www.LRRForums.com/showthread.php?21245-scotzman&goto=newpost Wed, 25 Apr 2012 20:53:20 GMT Oil pump bolt failure?

Amazingly it quit in the city limits of SLC where we have a great dealer for service instead of out in Nevada(now that would be a tow bill).

I am going to let it sit overnight and go back

Looking for any ideas to check when I get back - fuses? Battery voltage? (I'll bring jumpers)

Anything else I can check easily.

i will check for codes too.
