Either get a genuine Land Rover one from somewhere like Rimmer Bros or an aftermarket copy from Clever Trevor. Is a standard RV8 item.

I bought this lot for spares to throw in the boot last week, I haven't tried it out yet and have a feeling that I'm about to be told they're crap and don't work/fit or something hehe

I bought this package about 4 months ago, finally got 'round to fitting it at the weekend!
At the same time I fitted NGK iridium plugs and ditched the extender thingys
Bit early to give a definitive opinion (100 miles) but all seems ok so far

I was looking at the same thing at the weekend. I concluded that it is hard to tell the quality of stuff on ebay so ordered this:

http://www.clever-trevor.net/TVR/Parts_details/DIS...

It's on sale at the moment. The £8 delivery is a bit much, and they aren't very fast at dispatching either.

That is the exact reason that I haven't bought a single thing from there, or another supplier that does the same. I must have done a couple hundred quids worth of little random bits in the past couple of months, if I spent a standard £8 on delivery of every part I would have felt royally ripped off.

I had that Powerspark stuff off Ebay, cap, arm and leads before i went over to Emerald. I never had any problems it was fine. The rotor arm allegedly has been designed to combat the problems of modern day ones.

At the price of the package you can afford to change it all as often as you want. Just treat it all as serviceable items. But like i said i had no problems with it.

I think the consumer friendly advertising term is 'flat rate postage'. As some have pointed out, there is no point offering this exclusive service if they can't post it out immediately either! Although, I do have the dizzy and rotor from Clever Trevor and it has been fine. There are plenty of Land Rover places online offering a similar product.
