    Hey guys/girls. need some advice on my CCT, I need a new one. I was told by shops that OEM would be best but I have an AWM and thats not cheap. If anyone has put in another band and it worked well and its not a bad price please let me know? If you have any helpful tips on the job please feel free to chime in.
    I was looking at one from ECS and one from FCP.

    I was told this one holds up well.( http://www.ecstuning.com/Audi-B5_A4-...ner/ES1884226/

    was told this one held up well too?? http://www.fcpeuro.com/products/audi...oem-058109088k

    Thanks all.

    I would buy it from FCP as they give a lifetime warranty with purchase. Can't beat that. They do a lot of business on the forums here, so I'm sure they'd take care of you if needed. I've dealt with them a bit, and they've always been top notch. Not sure what ECS gives, but I don't think it's more than 1 year.
