Default Skip shift eliminators

Hey guys, quick question:


What's the difference between the skip shift eliminator that corvettes of houston sells and the one from gmpartshouse. I'm buying the column lock bypass from corvettes of houston and would prefer to buy the skip shift from them as well so it's all in one order:

Thanks in advance for your help!

They all accomplish the same thing so they're probably all the same and cost about the same. Might even all be made in one place.

I figured that to be the case, but there's a $10 difference between these two and they look significantly different. Maybe i'm just being overly cautious but i'm just curious as to what exactly the difference is.

The more expensive one looks like the one I previously used, until I had the CAGS tuned out when my car was tuned. It worked perfectly. However, I wouldn't hesitate buying the one from Houston, they seem to have a good reputation for products they sell.

As striper said, both will accomplish the same thing, and COH has a good reputation, so I'd go with the cheaper one if I were you. All it really is is a resistor, anyway.

The Corvettes of Houston one is more compact looking ... cleaner install.
