TiZip zippeer replacement?

I came across Tizip zippers. >tizip.com/index.php

I have an old Oneal STX 7/5 neoprene dry suit. Except for a failed zipper the suits in great shape.
It might be worth a $90 zipper and some glue. Labor to have it done seems to be about $175 plus the shipping cost, the suit is just not worth putting $300.00 in. I’m good at do it yourself projects.

I’m reaching out to see if anyone has repair their own drysuit using the TiZip zippers.
How successful were you, any advise, what sealant did you use, and, finally are there any videos around of the repair being made?

Thanks
John
