500 EFI Starter
#1
Can someone give me a link or direction on getting a starter for a 500 efi. Some are outrageously priced. I just want one that works well, and that people have been happy with. Not looking for overkill, EFI's tend to start with turn of the key. Just want a decently priced one. Please give a link to the one I need, It would help me out. Stock 500efi location, Bravo

I USED to use DB electric starters..
just had two in a row fail on me.. they covered them under warranty but doesn't do much good when you're stranded on the water.. They finally just sent me my $$ back.
I then ordered a Sierra Marine starter.. was $100 more than the DB electric starter ..... showed up and I found it's IDENTICAL to the DB unit... even packaging was the same just with a Sierra sticker on the box..
I sent THAT one back
FINALLY ordered an OEM starter.. Starter issues are over...
Wish I had known THAT.. I just ordered an API Alternator....
