I always have an extra set on my shelf. Just replaced the passengers side a few months ago.

Not even that hard for me. We Aussies are a "special lot".
Dayco USA, ask for DT18A, stats.
Dayco Products
Should be plenty of Dayco supplies/resellers all over the upper hemisphere.

OK, you're asking here to *buy* the correct thermostats.
Terrys Jag, as SS mentioned, SNG Barrat, or probably any of the usual Jag suppliers, or the local Jag dealer. Just make sure to specifically ask for the EBC3576 Jaguar part number, Jaguar packaging.

You'd think so, Grant, but it appears that Dayco distribution schemes are different for us Yanks. I wasn't able to find that part number anywhere. It appears that Dayco does not sell thermostats in the USA. The webpage doesn't mention thermostats anywhere and that part number doesn't come up when searched.

Now I learnt something, thanks for that.
What are the brands you have available in the aftermarket world?

Gates and Stant are the most common but many franchise-type parts shops sell various Brand-X types as well.
The Gates and Stant have the bypass disc but never seem to have the jiggle pins (or even the relief hole). I don't know if they are the correct length, either. I might buy one just to check! if the length is OK it wouldn't be any big deal to drill the steam relief hole

XKSUnlimited xks.com provided me with two proper-length and jiggle pin equipped t-stats. they carry the correct parts.
Now, if they'd sent me two of the same brand I'd have been happier, happier still if they'd both been the same temp spec!
It's way too hard to get good parts today.

Im basically saying that you order your parts and take your chances. If you're in a hurry for them I'd order from more than one vendor, return whichever is more expensive or wrong part, hope one gets it right and eat the shipping / return costs.

Its the Jaguar brand part, so there should be zero worries as with the others.
