But also check out eBay they usually have best deals! I just purchased a set of new headlights for my car at Can Tire -$59.99. Found a set on eBay for $25 plus $10.00 shipping. US funds but still a hell of a lot cheaper than here.

Yes, I purchased a set of headers, exhaust and programmer from the in February. I had no issues and everything arrived in two weeks. I definitely would use them again.

They are US but have warehouses in Edmonton and Calgary. You can check cost of shipping and customs on each order before finalizing. If its Cheaper I order.

Personally, I would not buy auto parts on eBay- you never know for certain what quality you are getting. A lot of knock-offs are claimed to be OEM quality- but in reality they are far from it.

I have used Rock Auto before and they are worth checking out. They are US based but some of their stuff is warehoused in Canada. Unfortunately, with the deflation of our Loonie versus the Greenback, savings are slimmer as you have to factor in shipping costs too. The Rock Auto web-site lets you choose brands/warehouses to minimize shipping.

You could also get a Montana Shipping Outlet account and have your items shipped to Sweetgrass or Eureka. You would have to pick them up though and bring them across border in person.
