Canadian Online Car Parts Store

Post by illapino »

I was looking for an online car parts store in Canada.
the most attractive American one I've found is http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/
but I wanted to ask you guys if you know one in Canada
that has specific components like O2 Sensors and brake pads, with elaborate product descriptions and images included.
thanks

Wow. shipping parts in from the USA will murder me
I placed my order with Autopartswarehouse.com, and turns out the shipping for one rear oxygen sensor for my v6 will be about $83 in shipping !!!!! double their website's 'automatic estimator.' But this is just an estimate. it can either go up and down, that is after I fax a copy of my Visa card which will begin the order ...

please, someone refer me to a Canadian Online Car Parts Seller !!!

Unfortunately Canadian places are hard to find online (well good ones at least). I would suggest trying this site instead:

It's not Canadian but it is cheaper than thepartsbin.com . ThePartsBin.com has such a stupid order process with faxing and stuff. Depending what the parts are, always compare with places like NAPA and Autovalue first. But the place I suggested seems pretty reasonable.

sorry, i didn't like that link at all ... i think rockauto.com is the way to go ... cheaper, and fast website ... i think you can bypass online merchants' requests for faxes by paying by paypal instead if they offer that option. i think they ask for faxes only if you pay by credit card ...
