OEM part local alternates - I want it NOW and I want it cheap!

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing

Do we already have something like this? (if so, point out and maybe we can merge them)

The intention is search a OEM part number and see substitution alternates. More intended as "Dealer Only" type parts rather than commmon parts like water pumps though novel things like finding an entire cooling hose kit in silicone for less than the price of one OEM hose will get included (Will update once I receive said kit and verify quality/install)

As I am doing a budget rebuild on a R53, I find myself stuck for parts with the dealer not having anything in stock at prices that don't work for a budget rebuild.

This is a list of alternates which I am using and will add to as I discover things or as I get comments from you.

Please comment here or on the sheet for additions/corrections.
