to lose the blue box of doom

I had the opposite a couple of months ago. I bought a set of OEM Wipac projector headlight units. When I opened the box they got shipped in both were in the blue box of doom lol with labels and part numbers for them on it too. I nearly phoned up the company to have a go but thought I'd better check first and right enough they were Wipac in Britpart boxes.
 
I've fitted britpart HD springs to both of my disco's and they were still good when I sold them 2 years later.

Had a clutch and hd clutch fork put in my last one 3 years back and it's still in there as far as I know.
 
Britpart front and rear props on mine, no issues so far given the amount of ****e I throw at them. Front been on for 2 years, only just thrown a UJ, rear six months ish and no problems at all.

Brake discs, two years or so old and no problems.

To be fair I haven't had too many issues with buying cheap other than wheel bearings ...

Yeah .. bearing (pun!) in mind that at the weekend and the Monday I'd stripped all the wheel bearings, re-packing with waterproof grease, and removed the props to sort a nackered UJ and re-packed them all with waterproof grease too .. ;)

I have a large Britpart cardboard box that I've flattened out and use to sit or kneel on when I work on the car and put underneath so I can slide around on my back to work on propshafts , suspension and the like. It's lasting really well. Really good double thickness corrugated cardboard too, so it's a lot more comfortable than lying on the tarmac.
