      best place to buy my 325i's external electric fuel pump? bma has a bosch one for about 140ish. i only wanna buy this thing once, so any help is appreciated. not looking to spend more than $150

      ebay has "better" prices on Bosch units but i have no idea what part number to look for or if ebay is even a good source for this.

                    Lol driving a 540 isn't cheap as far as gas goes either at least mine isn't anyways lol
