My local "Pull-A-part" sells starters for $19.95 plus a $7 core charge.
The cheapest PMGR 1995 Mustang starter at my local O'reillys is $79 plus a $10 core.
Depends on where you shop. I don't have a problem with either price.
I do have a problem with O'Reillys (and all the rest) selling just the PMGR solenoid by itself for $50. I mean more than half the price of a complete starter WITH a solenoid on it. That's just wrong. About double what it should be priced at. Not that anybody is asking me...
Local salvage yards are asking @$25 for a used one.
I've noted over the years that parts prices can vary drastically depending on what part of the country you are in. Pretty cheap around here I guess.

This is an old topic from me, but when reviewing my signature links for dead pictures I realized I never created an actual thread about it here on 69stang (just on the VMF). For those that enjoy fabricating their own stuff to save money, I've created a PDF with dimensions to create your own eccentric eliminators. Its really easy to do as long as you can accurately centerpunch and drill the holes. Once one plate is made, use a transfer punch using the completed plate onto the 2nd plate. Harbor Freight has transfer punches in case you don't have any, they are handy when replicating parts.
 
Attached below is the PDF as well as pics below, not of the actual fab'd plates but of what the aftermarket versions look like.
 
The numbers on the drawing are intended to be stamped into the plate so that you can keep track of the orientation of each plate. The numbers are sequential to the slight changes in camber. There is also a small hole drilled near the lower left corner, also to help with orientation. I also notice many have updated their plates to only include 2 holes. I only have the 3 hole version, but if someone has the two hole one I'd be curious how the dimensions measure up. My guess is they don't allow for as fine of camber adjustments as the 3 hole does.
