The price of parts is getting to the point where they are so greedy it encourages you to look elsewhere. We had a potentiometer go on the combine. NH wanted i think it was £123, the part from the electronics company that made it was £23 but minimum order of 20, Dave King electronic £30 and some on here thought it was fine for NH to charge that. To make it worse NH didn't have the part in stock.

I think I will pull them in a bit narrower , been running them quite wide to look straight down the side of a silage trailer or spreader but getting a bit fed up of cracking them.

Thanks for looking that up but the non heated glass has slightly less of a concave shape for it so won't fit. Am I sure? Yep I also broke a new one of them trying to make it fit!Mirror Glass, Case IH, New Holland , Massey Ferguson 12"x9" | eBay

Main dealer is always my last port of call. It depends what it is of course but I always know they are going to shaft me beyond the products manufacturing cost.
They wouldn't be around long if they sell it for less than the manafacturing cost.

No one owes anyone else a living. And having wasted 40 years of my life with beef cattle. I certainly search and buy as cheap as possible.

For the most part it's the manufacturers who set the prices not the dealers. If the manufacturers could just see they are losing out by being so expensive. If they were a little more competitive they would get the sale. How many of use would go through the hassle of searching for parts if they were only a couple of £ more at the dealer, but a few hundred and we all start to look.

Is it not a wabco compressor? Not many manufacturers make there own air systems, 90% of what I’ve come across have been wabco. Parts can be found much cheaper.
