[TR] Hard to find bits for TR3/TR4 to bring back from the UK?

[Mike Denman]

One suggestion that you might want to consider... Take a picture of your car 
with you for airport security. Since 9-11 airport security gets real nervous 
when you have unidentifiable metal objects in your suitcase. I brought back 
some car parts from the UK a couple of years ago and was being given a 
through questioning until I remembered that I had a picture of my car in my 
wallet. Once I showed airport security the picture of the car and explained 
that I bought the parts in the UK because the parts were rather scarce in 
the US, the attitude of security changed completely. Then the only concern 
was if the parts contained any petroleum products that might explode. So, 
take a picture of your car and make sure the parts you bring back are clean 
of oil and petrol.
