Another option for parts is always the U.S. or Canada. It can be a little hit & miss though. I bought a distributor some time back from Canada and while it looked the goods and was a fraction of the price buying local it didn't last long (couple of years max). My mechanic opened it up and said the internals didn't look so well made. So after a couple of years forked out for a locally made new one anyway. Maybe I just had bad luck & depending on the part sometimes it's worth punt trying O/S. I've read other posts where people have paid a couple of hundred dollars compared to $3,000 odd dollars locally for the same part.
Cheers.
