Default Parts no longer available . . .

May need a new fuel pump relay for the S1. My mate got one from ford last year but i been told today you can't get them any more (along with hundreds of other parts) lol. So what do we do when there are no more particular second hand parts to be had that are vital to a car running ? Break a whole car cos one tiny part is no longer available Makes ya think does'nt it.

If you're not bothered about it being original S1 then the sierra item fits - that's what's on mine so now it works ok.
