Which local store stocks things like replacement window regulators? Or headlight assemblys? I'm used to shopping back home at mom and pop shops that I knew locally.. But out here would it be part source? napa? (I'm not sure which get in model specific parts or if they just have generic stuff like oil filters and junk)

OR

What site ships usps? Sites like partstrain has what I need quite cheap, but list ups as their shipper.. :thumbsdow

Stupid little plastic clip broke on the power window and the whole assembly has to be replaced.. As well my headlight mount clips are broke off, so I'm looking to get everything at once... And not pay near dealer prices...

paul: Welcome to Live Help! How can I assist you today?

morty: hi paul, just wondering if you would ship 2 headlight assemblys and a window regulator, using USPS to canada, and how I choose the shipper when ordering, is it the "international" option.. or ground shipping, that it defaults to

paul: For this order international shipping will apply. Please be aware the parts will be shipped to our sales center, where they will be weighed and packaged. You will see a separate charge for international shipping. Shipping costs are calculated by the size and weight of the package and final shipping cost will be sent to your e-mail address after placing the order. Your order will be processed only when we get the confirmation from you on the shipping cost.

paul: May I have the Part Number (or SKU) Please.....

morty: blah blah blah (3 items)

paul: Please hold
paul: Headlight Passenger Side
paul: Headlight Driver Side
paul: Front Window Regulator Passenger Side. Power, with Motor

morty: yeah, but I'm just looking at the international price, it's too much. thanks for your help

paul: Welcome

morty: 2/3's of the parts costs, and its not a big package

paul: Do you have a US address ?

morty: no? im in canada

paul: Okay

morty: okay I'll see if I can find a buddy in the usa to ship to, that way it would be the flat ground rate, nothing
