Default I need a starter

My starter is messing up in the cold weather. I need to order a starter. Polaris wants $321 for a stater, I DON"T think I will be buying from them.

Anyone have a good bead on a parts place that I can order a starter from?

thanks

I recently bought a new starter from DB Electrical- http://www.db-starter-alternator.com (they also sell on ebay).
Along with a new battery the starter has worked flawlessly, even in sub-zero temps.
$42 bucks for a new starter ($54 after shipping) beats messing around with buying new parts and re-building. Good Luck!
