Default 97 Audi A4 Alternator

Greetings, I'm new to the forums and a somewhat new Audi owner. I have a 97 a4 1.8T and I need to replace the alternator. I want to purchase the part online because I have somewhere to install it for me but I'm not sure on where I should purchase the part and which.

I have been searching on ebay and I found a 1997 Audi A4 1.8L 90 amp Bosch Alternator for $40. First off should I buy a part from ebay and if so is this the reasonable price for it? Also I heard there is like a 120amp alternator, if I have a stereo system should I try and find that?

120 amp only for the AEB motor. Get a Bosch or Valeo, they are OEM.
