Default Replacement Disks for central lock pump

Hey everyone. I made a topic about the central locking pump earlier. The one i bought off ebay was broken -.- i have looked everywhere for another lock pump and i have a couple that ive seen. The only problem is IDK whether or not this next one i buy is gonna work or not or even be intact. So my question is...what is my best bet to get this to work? Buy another off ebay or???? Please help me out!!!!!!!

theres a guy on vw vortex thats selling an "upgraded" one. I'm about to buy one myself from him.

the thread: Fourtitude.com - How to: Fix your B5 A4 central locks on a budget

he links his own for sale thread in there.

no problem just going through almost the same issues here so...
but my pump failed when it was in the lock position, and i didnt realize that until i went to fill the tank and couldnt get it open... good thing i had some extra tubing in the trunk cuz my face wasnt fitting in there to get the rod back out...
