Yea, they are pricey on there.

Thanks...Yes, I "need" the solenoid, but I guess I was expecting to have to buy the whole valve...but if I can modify a solenoid off of something to work, I am fine with that.

I guess that's where the confusion was. You were thinking solenoid only, and I was thinking the whole valve. Sorry about that.

Thank you!
Well this is just me, but at this point I'd look a bit more and probably end up buying the cheapest new one I could find and get the solenoid off it if I couldn't get the whole valve to work. Of course I'm assuming the valve itself is OK. Like I said that's just what I would consider.

Yea, I can get this one that looks to be correct for $40-$50 for the whole valve...so considering doing that, as I don't know if the valve on the car is still okay or not. Thanks!

Don't forget about the electrical connector! Need to check that if you can.

Good point! I could go outside again...but do you mean the two pin connector, or is there something I am overlooking? Thanks!
