OK....I get it.... if you buy cheap, you get what you paid for.
BUT!! Why would a voltage regulator for a 914 cost from BERU=$28 HELLA=$44 BOSCH=$300!!! I get that maybe a filter or materials are better in one over the other, but AT WHAT POINT it really makes a difference between a $300 vs a $28? Am I missing something? Don't they ALL the same thing? If my alternator is faulty, it will kill ANY of them regulators.... would it not? The output from any of them should be same... Please, enlighten me with your knowledge, since I need to buy one.... and I could get 10 for the BERU vs 1 of the BOSCH!!! Thank you for the help as always! Felix  |
