wow - looks like something worth looking at, especially since the toyota parts are hard to find and then extremely expensive (i think i paid $185 for the pre-heating timer alone!!!).

all kinds of cheap relays and stuff available, good ebayer, would be a question of the quality of Indian electronics.

look at their web site for these prices - buy 20 for the price of 1 OEM:

Heavy Duty AUTOMOTIVE POWER RELAYS 70 AMP 12V 4 Pin
70 Amps with 80A Peak, 12 Volt - 4 Pole

Lot of 20 Relays $109.99

I went ahead and bought the glow system, I will report on how well it works/installs. Anybody use this system before or something similar?? Might use it on my 3B.

Awesome price for a fully functioning kit. Hope it works. Wonder if they offer it for 24v?

The auto electricians in oz always recommend kits similar to these when the OEM system dies.

Reading the description, he says he can adjust the pre-set gow period depending on your application.
