Just installed a complete exhaust system + cat, rear hatch struts and bumper end caps from Ron at BusDepot (thanks Ron-very impressed with your prices and service).It came in a box via US air mail-I had to pay GST (7%) + $can5 handling fee.However there may be PST (7%)-I know we don't pay PST on US goods here in BC or Alberta-unsure about Quebec .And there were no duties even though the most parts were from Germany.
