I found out about Auto Parts Fast at RockAuto. I've been ordering parts, for my corolla and the Bird. Great site, saved a bundle.

I thought they "get you" on the shipping?

More of an aftermarket company review type of topic isn't it?

Not in my experience. I bought some heavier items (calipers & rotors) along with a handful of other little stuff and it was like $11 shipping. I also had no problems when I sent my caliper cores back. Got a check in about a week. Rock Auto's prices are excellent if you can wait a couple days for the parts to arrive.

I needed a pair of self-adjusting OEM air shocks for my wife's mini-van about four years ago. The OEM replacements were $365 each!!! I discovered that AC Delco makes these shocks and obtained the part number. Rock Auto stocked them for $50 each so I ordered one pair. To my surprise, each box contained two shocks! I returned one (pair) and they were very prompt in refunding the difference.
