I didn't really choose to use this alternator. A few years ago my alternator died. I called all the DeLorean shops I knew of, and no one had a new alternator to sell me. They all wanted me to send them my old one to have it rebuilt. The alternator was in really sad shape, and I was pretty sure a rebuild was out of the question. So I took it to a local alternator shop I knew was good, and they confirmed that is was hopeless, but said they could get me a new replacement. So I went there to pick it up, and there, sitting on the table, was the box with "Lucas" written all over it. A scream of fear went off in the back of my mind, but then I figured I didn't have a better option at the moment, so I put it in my car. And over 3 years and 30,000 miles later, I have no complaints. It also came with a 3 or 5 year (I can't remember) warranty where they would pay towing and service costs if the car broke down because of the alternator. - J ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address to moderator@xxxx
