Andy,
I wonder of the Fiesta alternator is the same one that is being described. My
search revealed a cost of over $80.oo for the Bosche Unit. I also found that
the
GM was higher than reported. That might be a "wrecking yord" price.
I opted to keep the Lucas unit and live with the lower output, thereby keeping
it
"all Brit". I got a "Lifetime Warranty" so regardless of the number of times it
goes out, all it will cost is a little time.
