GPR failure

I'm not sure if anyone has torn apart their bad GPR, but here's what I found out about mine. The contacts for the battery/glowplugs had arc'd themselves into oblivion. Now I'm thinking of installing a "summer" switch to disable the coil winding side of the GPR during the warm months of the year. I bought my replacement through Napa and found out how much they love this part, over $70! I also want to install an indicator light on the output of the relay so I know when it's on or off.

The NAPA part number GPR110 is the same as the GPR109 ($26) except the 109 needs to be rotated 90* to get it to mount in the stock holes.

I'll find out tonight how much of a hassle it is to rotate it with the wires. Everyone on here says the factory harness has enough slack in it to make it rotate easily.

It's no hassle, there is enough slack.
