Im trying to find better prices for car parts especially filters (air filter, oil filter and cabin filters for my Ford Focus 2004). The average brick n motar stores such as Supercheap, Autobarn and Repco are overpriced are finding other alternatives to make purcahses.
Thanks.
How would you know they were overpriced if you didn't already find a cheap store…? Where are you getting your price benchmark from?
I used sparesbox a couple of months ago, took 2 weeks to ship without a single notification about what was happening.
I used this ebay source for kits for my falcon, kit was genuine oil filter, 6 genuine platinum spark plugs, and air filter worked out about 30 cheaper than supercheap/autobarn etc delivered pretty quick from victoria, Jefferson Fords (ebay)spare part div also has the same kind of kits at similar prices
Z632 oil filter from Supercheap can be had for $8.99, a Z63 for $16.99. Not 100% which one suits your car because you didn’t give much info… but how much cheaper do you want these filters??
It is a Ford Focus, so you’re probably right, at $20 for a filter replacement, it’s over 50% of the replacement cost of the vehicle, making it an economic writeoff…
Pretty much what he said. Lol
at $20 for a filter replacement, it’s over 50% of the replacement cost of the vehicle
Haha straight savage…
sparesbox is worth a look. Plus there was an amex offer a month or so ago, where their price on a part was already 20% lower than anyone else I could find, and I got another $50 amex credit back. They also have an ebay store which is sometimes part of 20% off deals, so compare that (all ebay sellers for your parts) as well.
That said, the stores you've listed would sell oil filters for $20 or less for your car, not sure how cheap you think you can get one.
