www.speedbleeder.com set of 4 for 42 dollars.

Not sure if you know there is no such thing as an OEM speed bleeder. Speed bleeders have a small spring which lets you bleed your brakes w/o the aid someone else. And OEM units are just a small valve that closes when you tighten it.

Or you may just mean the material of the aftermarket version, I'd stick with SS.

OEM is Original Equipment Manufacturer, so if you bought OEM, you'd buy exactly what came with the car so nothing is enhanced or better that original.


And the rest is in my last post.

this is directly from the site

Introducing Speed Bleeder... The automotive bleeder screw with the built-in check valve that makes bleeding your brakes truely a one person job! Simply remove your OEM bleeder screw and replace it with Speed Bleeder. When you are ready to bleed your brakes loosen the Speed Bleeder 1/4 turn. Pump the brake lever or pedal until bubble free fluid is seen. Close the speed Bleeder and you are done. Anyone can do it! Speed Bleeders are priced at $7.00 each for the OEM steel version and $15.00 each for the Stainless Steel version. ........ .................................................. ...........Place your order using the shopping cart system. When you get to the order confirmation page state the year, make and model of the vehicle that you are ordering for in the comment box.

It's the the OEM MATERIAL, stainless or regular practially the same, the stainless wont rust, thats the only difference. If you live where rust is a big deal, go with SS, if you dont, then normal steel is fine
