Exclamation BOSCH Rebuilts

If the box and unit have BOSCH stickers on them you're good to go .

I keep hammering away at this because in my decades as an indie shop and working at a partshaus I discovered that Bosch licensed rebuilders use _only_ Robert Bosch parts and they ALWAYS install new solenoids on the starters and this is the #1 failure point of Bosch starters .

When the on hand stock runs low, they just drop brandy new units into the rebuilt box and don't charge any more $ .

More co$tly yes but worth every penny as you install it and forget about it .
