Have you ever tried to purchase those spares yourself that you see in the list which your car mechanic show’s you? Most of us do not. Car service centers make huge margin on repair jobs from selling the spares alone and you end up paying a lot more than actually you should. So from now make it a point to buy spares yourself and you can do it simply by asking your mechanic for the list of spares and then buying it from a shop which sells quality spares at reasonable price. I have a Ford SUV and for all my ford auto parts requirements, I find drivewire.com the best. It sells ford parts accessories etc at really discounted rates and I find easy shopping for parts online as I can find parts easily while at shop I have to spend some time making the shop owner understand what I actually need. While these branded parts have numbers on them but there are so many parts from many brands that shop owners themselves don’t remember them. Sometime I have to carry the old part, show it and the buy the similar one which looks odd. In case of aftermarket car parts, it becomes more difficult to get the right part. Online stores are always the best option for both ease and moneywise.
