Default discounted parts?

Where can I get Honda discounted parts? I know about the online Honda dealers. I'm interested in other websites that sell replacement Honda parts with discounts.

I know about the resellers such as drive wire, pitparts, parts authority, etc. There are cheaper than Dealer but I'm curious if there are even lower prices elsewhere.

I'm looking for outer tie rods and the cheapest I found was $20 a piece. Someone mentioned they found theirs for $15 a piece.

If you know of a discounted parts seller, please post.

Thanks!

those are the online dealers... for the example the dealer will ask for $120-$140 on a front upper control arm, and i can get it for $65

that's the type of website i'm looking for with 50% more discounted parts... the online honda dealers will not have this type of discounts... i'm just curious..

I don't think even the employees get that much of a discount. If there was a site like that we probably would have known about it and wouldn't be using the other online dealer sites. Slhondaparts.com and hondaautomotiveparts.com has pretty good prices anyway.

yes, good compared to local dealer... but not good in general... for example autozone has a variety of parts, not only OEM, which are OEM replacement for cheaper than the local dealer or an online honda dealer... i'm looking for similar parts online hopefully being even cheaper than autozone or any other autoparts store...

like i said, dealer asked for $170 or so for control arm, i got it for like $65 online and the quality was same as those from autozone/pepboys/napa

ok, so your not looking for oem, your looking for OE. those control arms are probably remanufactured btw.
