I have ordered from the partsamerica site twice and it has worked out great for me. Just order up your parts, and pick them up at the local checker if you want. Makes core exchanges easy too, just bring it into the store. The prices are good too, the first time I ordered I got 25% off, because they were just starting the website, and I recently received a free gift(a corvette hotwheel collector thingy) that came in the mail and another discount coupon. The site is easy to use and there is even pictures of a lot of the parts, so you can see what you are getting. I plan to order some of my vanagon parts from them for the spring tune up. thats how it worked out for me, Kim > >Get a mailer today for "partsamerica.com" which is really Checker, >Schuck's or Kragen.
