The GW kit is DIY too, how long did it take you?  

It's from parts and fixes like this that we all benefit from GW being in the parts business as well as selling $60,000 and up vans with their parts and labor warranted for 12 mo/12k. No one else would bother developing a product like this for sale as a kit.  They did it because they needed it themselves.

GoWesty’s $250 solution works $250 worth.  I’d do it again in a minute.  I spent about 18 hours trying unsuccessfully to fix the worn out foil.  The alternative is to rewire it yourself and use  db25 connectors. That solution requires you to modify the wiring harness. GoWesty’s solution doesn’t. Additionally, the GW solution gives you LED illumination and that’s an awesome improvement.

Pays your money, takes your choice.
