Default Best Prices on Parts?
I know there are a million places selling Lexus OEM parts.

Is there ONE PLACE most people on this forum use?

I was wondering this myself but I figured those would be mentioned because as I searched about different DIY topics they were mentioned. Any up to date discount codes?

Also check ebay and google shopping. I got two engine mounts for $148 from ebay (oem..that is cheap).

I have had great experiences with Carson. Call there number and ask for Luis in internet parts sales and tell him that you are with club lexus and he will take care of the rest.

Default Lexus of Stevens Creek - Cost + 10%
I just caught this other thread in the NorCal regional section. Cost +10%

Might be worth it to call em and see if they'll sell outside of the local area.

Carson Toyota I have ordered 2 bodykits that were shipped from japan and countless other parts and never once had a problem. The first kit I ordered took 3 months to receive, which I expected and knew before I ordered but they were continually updating me through the whole wait, and everytime I order they ship the parts fast and it's always right.

Sewell charges RETAIL minus 10% which is NOT a good deal.

They need to be more competitive with pricing. Thumbs down for them.

Carson is great, but it's pretty closed-minded to just blindly say it has the best price, and no other place.

Last few orders I went through parts.com, which uses the exact same trademotion system as Carson. It ended up being 10% lower then Carson for the parts I ordered. My orders were fulfilled with genuine parts through a Florida lexus/toyota dealer.

That would be Pembroke Pines Lexus ......

Pro's low low prices i.e. 2GS rear engine mount $57, that's cheaper than aftermarket price for the same part $85

Con's they only do UPS Ground Shipping
