That price is for the custom fit pump, installation kit & the plug-n-play wiring harness.
If you built a $10 wiring harness, you didn't buy good parts. A good relay is nearly $20. You do not get these at Radio Shack. Remember this part is the one that leaves you stranded when it goes bad.
I also doubt you bought weatherpack connectors for everything.
You can go cheap, but this is what headaches are made of. Nothing like fixing the car whan you were planning to drive it...

The 98 wire harness is a different connector. I keep the harness in stock for the 98 cars. Not an easy install without the direct fit pump as Lonnie was mentioning.

We just dropped our price on these harnesses a while back. They are a good value considering how involved they are. The in-line mate is hand-made and sealed on the back end which is costly to do.
