I think I just picked them up here and there whenever one popped up cheap.
I'd see what Paul Grant is getting for one.

I just suggest the warranty so you are not paying again if it goes bad

So, you don't need the heat shield? I have been trying to find a starter for my 95 and autoparts warehouse had one with a 5 year warranty for 120. Where are you getting a lifetime warranty. I tried to get info from Paul Grant and he didn't call back. How do you reach him?

Yes, I've had one for 7 or 8 years on my '95 Disco. Well worth the money IMO, especially for cold areas. It's a higher torque starter.
