High quality but this cap should only cost $5. If I wasn’t installing a new engine I would have used a standard plastic cap. The safety hole wires are nice.

High quality component from Andair.
Fit perfectly on my O-200-A tach and was able to be safety wire. However, this part is extremely overpriced ($32.50 as of the day I bought it).
Clean, safe solution.
