Dizzy cap and rotor arm prices!!!

[s13b]

Wow, for such simple parts i cant believe the prices!

Been quoted over £40 just for a pattern part dizzy, and £120 for a genuine bmw one...

WTF, how is that right?!?

They were quite steep a few years ago, when I owned E30s - around £50-£60 for a dizzy cap from Halfords, IIRC. Euro Car Parts were cheapest at the time - they did them for about £30.

I see they do a Beru one for under £13, but I wonder what the quality is like?

Just checked ECP for my 325i and its £61.20, for what model is it £13?

£40.74 on CarParts4Less for a Bremi one. Plus they have £5 off for orders over £30 this now.

I entered in 1989 320i, petrol, and it comes up with:

"BERU Distributor cap Part No.: 404110050, £12.30".

Yet, a 1989 325i only shows the Bremi one, at £61.20.

As we all know, both Motronic 320i and 325i use the same dizzy cap!

Didn't realise they were the same, good to know might just pick one up at that price.

"BERU Distributor cap Part No.: 404110050, £12.30".

Or £7.80 on carparts4less site. Unfortunately, I think you may find that this turns out to be for the old block mounted distributor.
