Quality seems great
It's a new water pump. I've had it installed on a L//R Disco 4.0 for a week and seems to be working fine. The build quality and machining of the water pump appeared to be great. There were no fitment issues. It looked as good or better than the much more expensive parts store unit I bought several years ago which recently failed. Gasket was decent quality. Time will tell how long it lasts, but seems great so far. I would definitely recommend.

Looks Perfect When Installed!!
My wife and daughter have 4x fitbit Surges between them. The original bands on all of them became heavily discolored and delaminates at the watch/tracker body and looks terrible within a fairly short period of time. This new band resolves that problem, or at least it has so far. It actually appears to be made better IMO than the original. Feels similar but slightly stiffer and different material which I don't think will cause problems in the future.
Removal of the old band is fairly straightforward, there are some videos out there which show ya how to do it, by removing the torx screws and pulling off. Double-sided adhesive tape and 'teeth' hold the bands in place. On ours, the frame of the original band was half broken inside and was removed from the tracker body pretty easily -- my young daughter just pulled them off!! The only trick was removing the bluetooth antenna that stays adhered with double-sided tape inside the band.
The antenna is a thin delicate mylar film smaller than a small postage stamp with electronic copper traces finely printed or etched on the surface. It's securely adhered inside the old band using double-sided tape and must be removed and transferred back to the watch in a specific manner BEFORE installing the large side of the new band.
To remove it, I recommend carefully peeling back or cutting away the silicone exterior on the old band and using a razor knife to cut the plastic body of the band (the part that 'attaches' to the watch body) ...basically cut the band area AROUND the bluetooth antenna so you don't disturb or damage it. The reason for this is because I believe it is much more difficult to peel the antenna from inside the band, and the risk of damage is higher. If you damage the antenna, you're screwed on bluetooth! So carefully cut around the antenna with a razor knife. Then you end up with a piece of plastic with the bluetooth antenna adhered to one side. Once you have that in your hands, hold it with a needle-nose pliers and heat the backside of the plastic (not the antenna side) with a hair drier for 30 seconds or so to 'loosen' the adhesive bond of the double-sided tape. Gently and carefully 'peel' the antenna away from the thicker plastic using your fingers. Try not to bend the printed mylar strip (the bluetooth antenna) too much and definitely DON'T rip it. It can withstand some bending, but not too much. A little heat on the backside allows fairly easy removal and the adhesive should still be on the antenna. Look closely and CAREFULLY at the little plastic antenna, make sure the adhesive areas are clean on both sides, and align it onto the watch body OVER the place where it goes. I left the double-sided tape on our bluetooth antenna, no reason to remove it. Look carefully, you should see a very slight imprint on the antenna where it was sandwiched against the tracker body antenna region. Take note that you have not installed the antenna backwards or upsidedown!!! All this is fairly easy to do if you take your time and use care. It's not too difficult.
Once you have the antenna in place, time to install the band. Just gently push it onto the watch/tracker body being careful the antenna hasn't moved. It shouldn't because there is some adhesive holding it down. You'll note when doing this that the band appears to 'bottom out' and not go any further. Hmmm, strange, huh? Don't worry. At this point push the band harder in a somewhat upward arching motion. It takes some effort. The molded 'teeth' on the side of the watch band will eventually 'click' into place and lock onto the Fitbit tracker body. The band we installed locked in place so positively it was almost impossible to remove no matter how hard I pulled (and I did pull HARD!), so I don't think you need to replace any double-sided tape if some came off when removing the old band. When the new band 'clicks' in place, the edge of the new band fits tight against the watch/tracker body just like it should and looks great! Repeat the process for the other side. To remove a band if you need to re-adjust the bluetooth antenna, don't pull on the band, it's fruitless. Simply carefully work the edge of a thin box cutting razor knife under the edge of the band (near the locking 'teeth') and gently pry up and the corner of the band should pull away, do the same for the other side. I did that and it worked great and didn't damage the watch/tracker body or the band.
My daughter did most of this work herself, I supervised and assisted when needed. Everything works like it should including the Bluetooth features. If you do what I say exactly like I say it, it's a 20 minute job. This band made my daughter's Surge look new again! The band appears feels somewhat similar to the original, but after a couple weeks of round-the-clock use using sunscreen, it hasn't begun to discolor like the original did, and I believe the potential to delaminate is considerably less. I guess time will tell.
Hope this helps, good luck!!
