Get the Autozone one.  It's the same ZF pump.  Only differentiation could be
in who rebuilt it.  At worst, it's craftsmen in the Black Forest versus
monkeylads.  But what do you care with a lifetime warranty and a nearby
store?  When it leaks or breaks, you can run that thing to Autozone and get
a new one the same day.  Mail order puts your car out of commission while
you wait for a new one.  R & R of the pump takes less than 1/2 hour, and you
don't have to crawl under the car.  You can replace that thing no sweat.
