I posted before that I like to support local small town businesses whenever possible. I have a great relationship with a local Ford dealer. They give me a pretty darn good discount on OEM parts. Plus, when I need something else (maybe a torque spec that I can't easily find online, etc.) they know me and are always willing to help. It's a win win relationship, I think.
I just can't get any traction with a local Toyota dealer though. I've tried, talked to a couple different guys there, bought some parts there, but still have to pay MSRP. That and it's almost too long of a drive to get there. The next closest Toyota dealer is definitely too far to drive.
So, something that I'm not fond of doing; I think that I am going to have to buy OEM Toyota parts that I need online.
Where is the best place? I am concerned too about getting genuine OEM parts, not fake, knock-off, look alike junk.
Can a person get OEM Toyota parts somewhere at a discount off of MSRP, decent price (or 0) on shipping, etc.?
