Replacement flasher unit

[Gio]

The flasher unit on my '00 V11S was sarting to fail and so in looking for a replacement....

 

Stock item = Wagner 552 (2 pin) @ $35 US (from MG)...ouch!

 

As an alternative (for north America at least) = Tridon HD12 from local auto parts store @ $7.76 CDN (~ $6 US) and seems to work perfectly...

 

I like to support my dealer whenever possible, but not at these prices.

I don't know about Canada, but in the USA, you can pick up these flashers for something like a dollar or two(or less) at one's local auto parts store....

 

I swear I think I've bought one for like 75 cents one time

 

It's just a standard two pin(L shape) metal cylinder flasher that is used on all GM(and probably other makes) autos for decades.
