Best place to buy a DME for my s2

[jasonp]

Hiya,,
Thought it was time to buy a spare DME and wondered the best place to purchase it from?
Prices seem to vary from mid £20s to nearly £80,
Advice much appreciated,
Thanks, jasonp

£80 would be cheap for a tested DME.

You probably mean a DME relay which is s completely different thing. Buy from Porsche.

Thanks Simon,
I hope I got it right, it's the small part kept as spare in the glovebox?

Just to mark your card that the Frazer part DME relay at £18.14 is no way "Genuine Porsche DME relay" as the website states. Genuine Porsche ones are £57.00+ vat

Thanks T911,,,
a Porsche part it is then,
I subscribe to the " pay peanuts and you get monkeys " school of thought lol,,,
Cheers chaps jasonp

It may be a Vauxhall part though, which may well be of comparable quality...

Bosch rotor arm in a Porsche box 50 odd quid, Frazerpart in a Bosch box circa £19, cam and balance belts from OPC 140 odd local motor factors 45 both Gates power grip made on the same line and put in different boxes along with a host of other things, brakes etc.

I've been looking in to a solid state one for mine as I've just had to use the spare I've had in the glove box for the last 10 years or so:

Out of stock just now, but have seen them at greatly inflated prices on one or two of the UK specialists. Will most likely get a colleague living in the US to get one for me once they have them in stock again.

The last one I had from Frazerpart had the 993 part number, been on the car a few years now with no issues...........card marked !

I have the pump prime one - he delivered them to my hotel when I was in Florida last year.
