Default pressure plates

Any thoughts on the of the shelf units by Snyders and Brattons.

I'm in oz and had a price to have my one rebuilt is about $250 and employs a local expensive but a good thing.
Too costly to send my one over to the US for a rebuild.
Off the shelf units?? Cheapest option.

Thanks in advance

Regards Ross

they're OK in general, but check the finger adjustment before you install it. Sometimes they are not properly adjusted.
