Angry Glow plug AC crap

Well, I had a few puffing before my truck got going when cold. I rechecked the glow plug and guess what, found a AC glow plug quit on me. The only AC glow plug, installed, the oders are beru and lucas. I was tinking of having the fuel system checked but decided to check the plug again, just in case. I checked them a months ago and everything was working.

Lesson learned: allways check the plug, never buy AC again.

Have not done any searching but before I do I just thought I'd ask about who is a good supplier for berus glow plugs?
Are they something you can easily get?
