Glow Plug Extension

This set contains a tulp plug (male), a tulp chassis part (female), a crocodile clip, a contact clip and some wire. All for the ridiculous price of fl.22. If you buy this stuff separately you will spend maybe fl. 8 ! Oh yes one thing, use THIN wire, otherwise the wire will break at the solder points due to vibration.

Furthermore, this Robbe package is cheap quality:
1. the tulp plug feels really cheap, very thin pull release (I dont know the proper english term, I mean the fastener that prevents damage when you pull on the cable instead of the housing of the plug).
2. The chassis part is cheap quality, the thread broke off when I fastened the bolt.
3. Better replace the contact clip immediately with a non-clipping contact, as the contact clip might vibrate loose and it does not make sense at all to have a clip here.
4. The plastic around the crocodile clip will slip off when you pinch it.
5. You will have to solder parts anyway, because the parts have to be mounted first, before being connected. So buying this package does not save any time as well.
