Whats the part #s? I'll go ask my parts counter for a price check.

 

I got raped for almost 60$ at the stealership for two keys. len could have gotten them for me for like 11$ each. unfortunately I was in a pinch so had no choice.

 

90172-S04-003 Bolt

52622-SR3-003 bushing

 

#10 Looks like lower FRONT shock bushing.

 

Yeah, your local stealership is always a lot more expensive then online sites like those.

 

I was quoted $1.55 for the bolt.
$21.13 for the bushing.

One is less, one is more.
That being said. Honda does not have set in stone pricing on these parts. The prices seem to vary around the country.

 

It's also possible that list prices with Acura of Canada are different from those in the States.

The best online dealers (like Delray) give a flat 20 percent off list. Most dealers sell prices wholesale (such as to local independent mechanics) at the same discount. To a walk-up retail customer, they may not give any discount at all. On a large purchase, they may give a discount up to 20 percent. I know when I bought an ITR tranny (for the GS-R), they were quick to offer it to me at wholesale.

 

Is Delray your online dealer of choice? Without Len, I won't be supporting Sons Acura.

 

If I need a part asap, I look the prices up online and use them to my advantage at the dealership. Theres only been like one time when the service guy wouldn't help me out. They havn't matched the price but have gotten close.

 

They are pretty good, I am local to them and whenever I place a order with them their parts van delivers it to me.

Last time I ordered a bunch of transmission parts when I was rebuilding it. I had the parts guy come by right during when I was in my garage working on the R and we ended having an hour conversation.

 

http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com or http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org are what I use now.

 

I just bought that bolt too. Bought some rs door bezels also, my order cost was $12 shipping and handling was $15. I should have just bought the bolt local for $9.

 

My local dealership gives me employee discount, so I've been going to them for all my parts needs. Reminds me I need to give them a call.

 

I just got charged 10 dollars for an oil filter....are prices up or is my local stealership just ripping everyone off? They used to sell it for a litle under 5...I was just desperate.

 

ya I was wondering the same thing, Dealership parts use to be little higher then aftermarket parts, now there twice the price. Reminds me the of the old days with my Volkswagen

 

Majestic Honda / http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com is by far the cheapest in the country, 30% off list across the board. Dealer prices in Chicago vary wildly. Some charge list, some charge excessively above list.

Bert-O is good when the total order cost isn't enough to offset Majestic Honda's s&h charge.

And btw, Honda SCREWS us in parts costs compared to other brands. Their parts costs on major stuff like shortblock, pistons, etc is ok, but we get taken to the cleaners in the likes of nuts and bolts. You'd think a company like BMW would be ridiculous for parts costs, but they're the same or sometimes less than Honda parts other than stuff like a shortblock.

 

Prices definitely vary depending on the dealership. All of the dealerships in my area have different prices for the same parts. The bigger dealerships usually have better prices. Maybe they get better pricing since they sell more cars.

 

welcome to canada bro

 

you gotta keep in mind that on these web sites the prices are + sh. the prices you get from the local dealer have everything included already.

 

True. But for most of us, we have to pay sales tax when buying at the local dealer, and not when having parts shipped from out of state.

They give 20 percent off across the board, which is the best I've found online. So yeah, that would be my online dealer of choice. OTOH if I'm getting something major (like a transmission), I can get the same discount locally. And if it's something small, it's cheaper to get it locally and the savings on shipping can offset the extra cost by not getting 20 percent off.

Delray shows them as $7.04 list, $5.63 their price.

Most dealerships will give you 10-20 percent off if you buy half a dozen or more at a time.
