ABY alternator/diode pack part number and supplier?

[dave4]

Evening all,

Just had a phone call from the garage to say that a diode pack for my a/c ABY is going to be in the region of 190Euros
and (if I wanted one ;-) a new alternator 500Euros - none in stock with Bosch distributor in Malaga so have to be straight from Germany.

They suggested I try and get either of the above in the UK as they felt the price was a little steep . . . . . .

Could anyone point me in the direction of a UK supplier that does sharpish deliveries?
(my missus is there at the mo, but comes back on Sunday, so it might just work)

Also if anyone knows the part no.s so I can start hunting?

cheers!

you might be best speaking to vagparts and see if they have what you need and can deliver in the UK before your missus leaves mate. they're on +44 (0)1793 487700

What about GSF or Eurocarparts? Not sure if they would do one, but they would probably be quick. Either that or the OEM dealer for that part, would it be Bosch?
