Question ABS Pressure accumulator and switch.

Hi All.
So I have a bad accumulator. After much research I have found the replacement part by Jaguar for my 95 6 cly XJS. It is coming from
David Manners Ltd in the UK. Including shipping 200 pounds.
I did not want to get the new/old stock. The thought of having a 20 yr old diaphragm did not sit well with me. In the USA acc' are $325 and up. My dealer wants $469 for the JLM 1907.
While stuff is apart, I thought about changing the ABS pressure switch.......
Pricey to say the least . I went on Amazon and found #delco 25530882. $95.
The electrical connections and threads and O ring set up seem to be the same as the blue $700+ switch. Reviews said that it fits Tevis II Abs. People have been putting the Delco on 95-98 Range Rovers and Lincolns.
Has any one had any experience with this set up? Are the pressures the same in both switches?
I know there are some really clever people on this Forum. Please Help.
Many Thanks
Nick R

Thanks Paul.
The Delco 25528382 is no longer made. I have read that they leak the gas through the membrane after a short while. The cheapest that I have seen made by WABCO is jlm 1907, well over $300.

Teves mk ii abs was fitted to loads of American and European cars in 80's and early 90's, consequently there are plenty of other car model web forums discussing sources for new parts that are equivalent or compatible, often seem to be below $200 (us$)

See this

"Perhaps this will work itself down to the Ford T-Bird and SC owners - the HYDAC accumulator is the one you are looking for. It is sold by Spinningwheels-SC.com and is listed on their website for $135.00.
The HYDAC accumulaor is also being used on the Buick Reattas - 1988/1991 which are equipped with the TEVES Mark II ABS unit. Spinningwheels has been selling this HYDAC unit for about five years now with no problems whatsoever and this speaks well of their quality. The unit is made in Germany and is precharged to 1000P SI with a max working pressure of 3000 PSI. It has a volume of 20 cubic inches which is slightly larger than the OE unit on the TEVES Mark II and which was aftermarket sold as the Delco unit 25528382. Delco is seemingly not offering the part now and this has created substantial interest in alternative units.
Just as soon as we discovered he HYDAC unit we purchased one and it was installed on a daily driver. Performs as well as the OE and the Delco unit and possibly a bit better. The owner of the daily driver (not me) is quite pleased with the performance.
I am aware that Spinningwheels-SC is currently out of stock but I am advised that names can be placed on the waiting list and no payment is due until the part is shipped.
Previous threads and posts on this Forum have mentioned the WABCO part STC 2784 as being compatible with the TC TEVES Mark II units. Has anyone actually tested this accumulator on a TC? From the specs that I see it should work well but just wondering if it has actually been used on a TC.
Thanks.
