Does anyone know of or use an online auto parts store to get oem or oem style parts for their vehicle. Any recommendations for a good site that has been reliable for you. I'm not talking about ebay or performance parts websites. More along the lines of this type of site.

autopartsway . ca

What do you guys use?

I've heard some good things about Rock Auto I think it's called.

I generally use RockAuto as even with shipping they're generally a lot cheaper than buying locally.

Does Rock Auto have a Canadian distributor so you don't have to pay brokerage and such?

I've always used autopartsway and so far has been good.

They factor it into your prices, or so they told me whe nI first ordered. I as well as many friends ordered from them, and we never had any surprise charges. They ship with Fedex

OK- i guess you cant post URL's

I use autopartsway..... google them for their website.

Everything ships from Vancouver, the prices are good, and shipping is usually free if you spend over $50.00.

I will check out this rockauto next time i place an order!

I did some heavy comparisons with a bunch of online retailers before ordering about 250$ worth of parts from the united states. (would have been 600+ here for lower quality parts)

So once i eliminated Canadian websites i compared autopartswarehouse amazon and rock auto and found that amazon was cheaper due to free shipping but the prices were cheaper on rock auto. but once shipping in factored even to ship to canada (I shipped to Montana) rockauto was not the best buy.

amazon .com does. all Canadian online sites are very close to the same price.

Thanks for all the great responses. I tried rock auto earlier but there site was down. I ended up finding a honda parts site called college hills honda. I got my part from them and it was a really good price for oem. I finally got onto that rock auto and it seems good and cheap. Thanks.
