    Default which alternator

    My alternator has died tonight as confirmed by the nice man from the AA, so i've been looking around & ECP have 5 different ones that they suggest are suitable for my car, looking at the spec of them they are all the same except the amps which range from 105 to 130. can anyone tell me which i should go for ?.


    Many thanks
    Jolhn

    i went for this one (105amp) last week for my facelift vectra sri cdti 150bhp http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Va...f1efa10&000012
    you can use WINTER25 for 25% off on line, or i went in and asked best price they said £167, so i said ok i will buy online with promo code, he came back and said i could have it now for £120... result
