Where do you guys buy/find parts from?
« on: August 12, 2016, 12:10:27 pm »
Hello - Just seeing where you guys go to find "common" parts for these vehicles. It seems that the dealer is a long shot as well as any local "distributors". Do you guys buy online from any particular sites? I know of GoWesty and busdepot but is that it? I am in the process of renovating a 93 weekender and am looking for anything from speedo cables to window switches.

I look forward to hearing back from you guys. Seems like this can cause an issue when anything mechanical comes up.

I just got an automatic transmission dip stick from Europarts of San Diego. Real nice part and not a bad price either!

I have a long list of new / used parts vendors saved on a Shutterfly Site:

Europarts-SD very competitive prices and knowledgeable guys specific to EVs.

AutohausAZ is consistently the best prices for OEM parts, however. I've found them to be 50% cheaper than anyone else on certain parts.

If you're still distributing parts, I'm looking for the window screen for the driver side sliding window.
