Default Cheapest place to get OEM parts?

Which place do you guys suggest I buy my timing belt parts from? I've seen newlexusparts.com but I do not like their site...what places are the cheapest for OEM parts? And this engine has 4 cam seals, correct? TIA

Try http://www.lexus-parts.com (Sewell Lexus dealership in Dallas, TX). Call up the parts dept. at (214) 353-2166 and ask for Darrell. Tell him that you're a ClubLexus member, and he should give you a 10% discount off your order

I wish I know the answer to that one. I used the search feature, but didn't come up with a clear answer. All I know is that there are 4 camshafts (outer/inner right, outer/inner left) in the ES engine, but don't know about the number of seals

See if you can send a PM to VVT-i. He is a Lexus certified master technician and should be able to help you out with your question.

Irontoad.com is a good website to purchase OEM parts from at reasonable prices.
