Bit of a dilemma

bustersbus · Jan 30, 2008

Need to change me cyclone to air filter pipe (ERR1729). Was quoted £55 for an L/R branded one in me local shop

Just did a search on Google and it only comes up with the LRdirect site and they've got it for £18.29 inc VAT (no pics)
ERR1729: LRdirect.com : Land Rover Parts & Accessories for Defender, Series, Range Rover, P38, Discovery & Freelander

Don't know if this is the branded one or not, so do ye's think it'll be worth going for?
Cheers

Aye, true Davie

Kinda looks like ah'll be going for the cheapo.
Ah've just stuck some tape round it just now to get by, the pipe's bin rubbing on the rocker cover and pretty much worn through. There was an affy lot o' gungy black sooty stuff all over the engine and round the other pipe comin' from the rocker cover to side plate, so ah changed that tonight as well
