Default Good Place For OEM Parts

Just thought i'd share my findings. I've been looking for / pricing OEM spark plugs, and OEM wires, plus tons of other things for my 100,000 mile tune up.

The dealer wanted $128 for my wire set, and $7.99 per spark plug for my plugs.

I found this website www.oempartsgarage.com they have lots of OEM/ OEM replacement parts, with great prices. Plus no tax, and FREE shipping when you spend $75 or more.

I got my AC Delco wire set for $63.00, and plugs for $5.63 each. All genuine AC Delco.

I knew about that site though I have never ordered from them. I use www.rockauto.com quite a bit and is where I bought most of my tuneup stuff for my 2004. I also have used www.gmpartsdirect.com quite a bit in the past. Their prices are usually pretty good but sometimes their shipping is outrageous.

I checked Pepboys, and they only had their own brand of wires "pro-select" or something like that.

And I've never heard that NGK and Ac Delco were the same plugs. Ac Delco is an American made plug, and NGK's are Japaneese?????

I've used them myself. Got a new upper grille for my '06 Monte LTZ from them. I think I paid $60 shipped for the grille?

I've also bought from Autoanything. So far no complaints.

Prices at GMPartsDirect are great. Their customer service, shipping fees, and shipping times suck!

I ordered the door sills through GMPD on December 27th, and just got them in mail yesterday 1/21/2010. Sorry, that is rediculous. And they charged me $18.00 for standard ground shipping on an item that weighs like .5 LBS, with the box, MAYBE 3 LBS.

I'm not going to say I will never order for GMPD again, but I will say I am not impressed with them.
