found some GPR's on ebay

eBay Motors: FORD DIESEL GLOW PLUG Relay 6.9 and 7.3 Powerstroke (item 270322223005 end time Jan-04-09 18:19:05 PST)

i hope this has worked, i thought i would have a look for some GPR's on ebay to compare prices when i do a ring around tommorrow, this bloke gives a 3 year warr on his and says they are better than the original because of the way they are designed internally. thought id post it here for you guys to check it out and see what you all think. he has a good feedback from everyone that has brought them.
cheers
josh

My original GPR has lasted for over 7 yrs (knock on wood), so I don't if I would be an accurate test mule for one of those. Sounds like a quality product from its description though. I haven't heard of the "wiping" method he is referring to, but sounds good in theory.

Hey Josh, Happy New Year for you down under. I think that is the same Relay I have in my truck right now. It works, but I have a smoke issue I believe is from my hybrids on cold start up. I will say it starts every time though so I can't fault the GPR. I just changed way too much stuff all at once last January.

thanks mate and a happy new year to you to, yeah if the relays that i find over here in the shops are more expensive than these(including freight) then i might grab a couple, i thought they sounded good so posted them up here to let everyone know that there is a alternative to the big stancore GPR. and to get some feedback on them like you who already runs them...
cheers mate

I found some at the local flee market last year. I kind of hate to say that I only paid $5 for one, I will have to go back next spring and try to get some more and past them out to the forum for that plus shipping. Lee

I was having starting problems last year and put on a Stancore. Its a beast but it is a little more costly, but you wont go wrong with it. I have talked to a few people that are using this ebay GPR and have no problems.
