Go to orielys and get one of theirs. Lifetime warranty on it.

They are not that hard to replace, 30 mins tops.

Its real simple two bolts 1/2" drive and then take off nuts on the solenoid terminals and toss in the new one. 20-30 minutes tops. Just dont over torque the bolts on the terminals....I broke mine right off the solenoid like an idiot...but im using a db starter its great and for under $90it I've had good luck so far! Best of luck!
