    I got mine from eBay, which isn't much good if in a hurry but I don't find Irish suppliers to carry stock like that.

    Yes, bought original unit online 6-7 years ago. All
    tests point to it having failed, so would like to fit
    new unit asap to see if problem solved.
    Want to take advantage of this weather.

    http://pertronixeurope.com/ Email or phone them and ask how they deliver?

    First class to NI and ParcelMotel it?

    I bought an Ignitor years ago from Retro Rockets USA and it was shipped from the UK by the above.


    I ordered a speedo cable for my motorcycle from a UK vendor on a Monday morning. It was posted Royal Mail 1st class to Newtownards from Exeter area on the Monday. Received by ParcelMotel on Tuesday. Down in Dublin Tuesday afternoon and in the local box for collection at 11pm on the Tuesday night. That's as quick as it's going to get I think. Other carriers will do a 48h service from UK to RoI. I've just had Yodel of all companies managing to deliver 20x 1L bottles of Iso from the UK (Fastway deal with it this side of the water) within 48h and without smashing the box up and having it leak everywhere :pac:

    Just a word of warning but check your alternator output as these are known to blow if you have spikes in your regulator.

    I think Wescom Ireland have them
