I posted ALL of the info regarding the Ractive one in a previous post as well as the fact that you could follow the link in the original post for details. I'll repost them for you:
I have no idea what the ebay one is like, I have no way of commenting on it as I have never seen or installed it. I have this exact brace on my car, it is a good product, it is easy to install. I don't know what else you want.
I don't really know what more info you want then what I have already given you, if that is the way you feel so be it.
By tying in the upper suspension points at the shock towers, the strength and rigidity of the chassis increases while the overall handling performance of the vehicle improves. Ractive Type-8 Strut Bars are constructed from tubular 6061 T-6 aircraft aluminum, which has a high stiffness to weight ratio. Tighter fitting tolerances are possible due to a more compact design, which allows greater clearances from engine components.
