jahmaka if you spent 95 just for the contacts and plunger assembly then why not go ahead and get a complete starter ?? - several auto parts sell the remanufactured starter for less than 90 (minus core) and some even have a lifetime warranty -- i did ask if that included labor :D and of course...

ya know i need to follow up on a mistake though - the vent tubes on the starter - well the new starter came with two and i was wrong about an extra being in there - it was broke - it belongs at the rear of starter on top - the clip was broke during shipping i guess - well it had half the clip...
