Default Who do you use to get parts?

I'm thinking about stocking up on oil/air/cabin air filters for 09 RX 350. Would you recommend rockauto, lexpartsworld, or another vendor sponsored by CL?

I go to local retail for getting these items. Costco has Mobile 1 synthetic oil for sale twice a year at about $25 per 6 qt. I buy FRAM oil filter, air and cabin filter from Walmart.

Locally, you can purchase NAPA Gold filters by the case or individually. They are made by WIX. If not in a rush, you can search Amazon and other locations online for what is available at that moment and at what price. Prices on Amazon especially have a tendency to move up and down. So, if you know you are going to need it you want to keep an eye open on the prices at a number of locations. Just recently stocked up on engine and cabin air filters through Amazon. Items had been in my basket for months before I pulled the trigger.

I get all my filters from Sewell because it's very very reasonable. oil/air/cabin filter combo is usually around $35 + shipping which is reasonable. Comparing it to get it from other online site for off brand, I rather pay for OE parts,
I also buy their maintenance parts from there too.

+1 for Sewell. I got all my filters and replacement wipers there. With the CL discount, even with shipping, it was much cheaper than my local dealership.

I've used Napa oil filters before and Castrol oil, now I am switching to Amsoil for everything. Air filter I use K&N because they are reusable so u buy it once and u are all set. Cabin air filter from ebay.
