Glow Plug Relay - Where to buy?

I purchased one off ebay that has 90 degree mounting base but doesn't fit. I would have to dremel out the hole lengths to make it fit. It's shorter than the factory one and not sure if that means it's not as good or wont last as long or what. The company said they haven't had any complaints before. How could I be the only one? I heard that the price of a new factory replacement relay is around $100.00 and I bought mine shipped for under $30.00. Anyone run this one or know of a better one to run or have info about these?

My relay went out under 5 yr 100,000 mile warranty and Ford replaced don't know year of truck but look into that. Relay went out again and researched and there are several fixes but ran into a thread that told of a relay used on snow plows Western Snow Plow Part 56131 and it wasn't perfect fit (only could get 1 bolt to work to engine) but hooked it up anyway. That was 2 yrs ago and still working. you can find on internet for as low as $13 plus shipping but found at a truck shop in SLC around 1700S and 300W. They had it for around $15 to $17. Bought 2 so when this goes out I have 1 on hand.

Thanks for the info nealsoninc, I'll have to check that place out. Maybe the one I bought will be the same way, will only bolt up on one side but still work.

I found this Nappa part number:
ECH GPR110
They want $75.50 for it.

Looks similar to the one I bought for under 30 bucks so I think I will just make it work and call it good. Nappa has high price on them too.
