I'm going to look into this for all my cars. Thank you.OEM parts hack
Call Advance Autoparts and ask the attendant for WORLDPAC parts. They sell wholesale OEM parts for imports at half the price.
Back in the day Carquest owned WORLDPAC and the only way to buy parts from them was to have a commercial account. Then Advance Autoparts bought CarQuest and WORLDPAC was included in the deal and is now available to retail customers.
Again, you must request WorldPac parts specifically or they won’t mention to you that they are available. They are not available online either.
Hope that helps.
