Where to buy OEM parts?


Recommended Posts

Is there a good place or vendor for online OEM parts? Local dealer is expensive obviously, and I know previous vehicles I had there were always forum vendors that did good pricing. Any recommendations especially for shipping to CA?

Thanks!

Good local dealers will charge MSRP for parts or maybe less. Remember, you buy from them locally, you support them, their families, and allow them to keep their doors open.

 

That said, if you insist on buying online, some places rape you on shipping and they make their money back and or MORE than MSRP off of you.

Free market. They can compete or become irrelevant.

 

OP- Google the part number and go with the cheapest price shipped.

Dealers run those online "gmcheappartshere.com" sites and a majority of the eBay sellers so some of the larger dealers in the nation do compete. But, imagine the amount of dollars of inventory they have to keep on hand to do all of it. The smaller guys can't do that anywhere as easy.
