Hi,

I would just like to know where people get parts for their car - especially the corolla gti owners. I need a new radiator and was wondering wheres the cheapest place to get it.

Local motorfactors, will probably be recon unit.

Also (and don't laugh) try local Toyota dealer, reason is some Toyota dealers do a discount on parts (sometimes upto 40% off) for Toyotas that are over 12 years old. ...but some don't, just a try.

Would be an idea to start a list of which dealers do and maybe post it in the important topics section. Having said that Toyota are so expensive for parts you would still be able to find quality parts cheaper. As i remember a new radiator for a GTi is something in the region of 200 + vat from Toyota!
