Hey guys,

Quick one before I return the item. I bought the following Vemo pump online but the connector is different.

It seems like all the sites match on this same pump - am I missing something, or do I need to pay 3 times as much for the OE part.

In the latter photos you will see the connectors on the currently (leaking) installed one in car.

Please ignore Ridex logo on image. It's the same connector type:

Have you priced up an original MP pump. I tend to favour original as you always know its going to fit and dont lose downtime having stripped something down, then having to go back and replace something.

Anyway nice time to get the Waxoly out there Conor.

Let us know how you get on!

Without being able to see all areas of the new pump, can you bolt the old cooector onto the new pumps connetion.
