Lawrence, this is a loaded question depending how fat your wallet is. If I am broke, I head for Autohaus or a PAP. If my wife have given me some play money and I am flush, I go for Classic Center and Mercedes Source. And sometimes I go in between cheap and whatever. My personal philosophy is that you usually get what you pay for - and in that most MB repairs are going to survive another 25 years, I want good quality over good price. However, a new shut off valve does not strike me the same way as a new radiator. Anyway, it is like the computer parts in recent threads - I had to balance (a) cheap price, (b) shipping & handling costs, (c) tax or no tax, (d) driving to Fry's and using 1 gallon of fuel, and all that stuff. It was a close call, but I went with Amazon (I think, maybe it was Newegg). When things get down to $5 either way, I try to support Mercedes Source because I want more videos on utube.

I'm going to buy a shutoff valve. There is an ebay seller with a 59 buck one
with gaskets for 1.50 each you need two. Autohaus AZ for 72 bucks for the Bosch
and others at varying prices. What is the best value? Lawrence Rhodes....
