Default Accessories (on-line) for Canadian Hosers, eh!?

Hello Eveyone! I've graduated from my red 2006 CRV EXL to a white 2008 Pilot SE RES. I'm picking it up this Saturday.

Now, like most, I am looking for some accessories and most on-line prices beat the crap out of the Dealers' "discounted" prices even when factoring in currency conversions.

I'm looking for a good website to purchase accessories and that ship to Canadians like me. I know there is a sticky with a whole list, but I'm looking for some feedback from my fellow Canuck's in this forum and what their experiences are with these on-line retailers.

Input on the best prices, customer service, and shipping (how to avoid those damn brokerage fees) would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance (eh!)

You can't go wrong with Tim at Hondacuraworld. I've also ordered from another dealership in California, but can't remember which one off the top of my head. The key to avoiding the brokerage fees is getting the item shipped with USPS, not UPS or Fedex. However, from my experience most places use UPS or Fedex. You could try asking if they'd ship with USPS. Either way, you'll save big $$$ by ordering accessories through the States.

And oh ya, welcome to the forum, eh. Stick around, you'll learn a lot.

I purchased a few parts from www.hondacuraworld.com. The pricing was way better than what the local dealerships were charging, and hondacuraworld was really easy to deal with (fast shipping, great support, etc.). If I needed something, I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

I also purchased HID lights from www.xenondepot.com, and Wilson Wong pads from eBay

The pads are a must!
