MAF Sensor Question

My MAF sensor has failed. Autozone has one with a lifetime guarantee for 235 bucks. Any advice before I pull the trigger? I cleaned the old one and it only went a couple thousand miles before throwing the codes again. Ebay has cheaper ones, but I don't know of the quality.

The link said zero results. 150 for a Bosch would be great! I tried to do the search myself, and it came up empty for me, too. I'll try to call them.

Thanks!

There's another place that sells the real deal and where I got mine. They are called German Auto Supply Ltd. and they sell on directly or on ebay. (They are in NC).
