[QUOTE="Area Z51, post: 19440, member: 355"] I agree that one should buy Canadian, but sometimes you just have to get the parts in the USA. As an example, the newer vettes have changed the ONStar pillar microphone from an omni-directional to a directional mic. This helps with clarity and less background noise from A/C etc. I want one of these, so I call the parts counter at the local Chev dealer. The price $66.00+ tax ...$44.00+ tax if a Corvette club member. Now in the US, it's on sale for $19.04. Shipping to anywhere in the US $9.00. A place like Johnson's charges $3.00 for handling. $31.00 is a far cry from $66.00. Most parts from a Canadian dealer are way more expensive than the US counterparts (Why is that?) And with the Canadian $$, it's even more pronouced. [/QUOTE]
