Wired remote for D800

[Cage]

The D800 arrives today, maybe the battery grip too, and a Kirk plate for the grip is winging it's way across the Pacific.

I do a lot of my shooting using a wired remote but was blown away by the price of the genuine items. I've found that the Chinese knock-offs have worked just fine on previous cameras and was looking for feedback on using one with the D800. Any recommendations appreciated.

Or this one with a timer. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Yongnuo-T...item3a7eeb070b

Also I was thinking about a glass monitor cover. I've never bothered with one for the D600 and have just left the OEM plastic one on the camera.
