Joe, Just remember the 3 legged jumper can and has overheated, melted the insulation and cause more problems. One car caught on fire from that problem. As for the circuit breakers. The 1/4" quick disconnects will cause and over heating problem as they age and will also discolor the insulation on the wires and get extremely hot. The soldered ring terminal is the best a safest way to update the unit.

The relays all plug in the same way of course, but For less money ($145) you get all Bosch relays also, the circuit breakers made with the correct tabs so no cutting & soldering is required to install them, the newer fan fail fused jumper. The eBay kits require the wiring to be cut and soldered, and the fain fail relay looks nicer albeit, but it is in danger of melting down and causing a fire as it still doesn't carry the voltage effeciently. Plus with the added benefit of safety & saving money, & saving your wiring so you donn't have a hack job, you also get to support our wonderful vendors who are there for us when we have problems, and not the ebay guy who will be gone shortly once the market thins for his products. Sor for my money, safety, origonality, and ease of install I choose Rob's kits. No personal vendetta against the ebay guy, just Robs are much better and cost less, so it is a no-brainer. That's about it in a nutshell.
