Vancouver BC or close??

Hey,

Anyone kicking around from the Vancouver BC Area? I am looking for a good list or options for parts, accessories etc.... I know bubkiss so my current list includes Crappy Tire...

I'm pretty sure they aren't what I'm looking for!

I believe there's a couple guys out in your area, someone will chime in shortly... I'm in Calgary, not quite that close...

Thanks.

No hurry here. Theres always more time than money anyway!

I've seen so many idea's its really hard to know where to start and how far to go.

I think my wife has already given me the rolleyes just being on the forum!

I'm down the road in Salem, Oregon. Not very close, but only a few hundred miles and a ferry ride away. My wife has moved from eye rolling to head shaking. Not sure what's next.
As for parts, a good place for browsing on line is highhorseperformance.com and 402motoring.com. Both have sections for Mags/LX cars.

Want to give a thumb nail list of what kind of items you may want? I'm in Winnipeg so at least we are in the same country...Try to avoid those nasty duties and taxes when ordering from beyond...

thats the biggest issue so far

after checking out some of the pics and reading the topics I have no idea where to start... there are so many options.....

I think inexpensive and easy are the road for me to head down as I don't know squat about cars etc...

I have some alpine speakers on the way to replace my fronts factory set but other than that?????? May not be the best first choice but the passenger side door is blown so It has to happen....

I am thinking headlights and tail lights may be next....I'm starting with factory so I think the options are pretty much endless..

Any good canadian websites to avoid those nasty extra $?? A freind put me on to crutchfieldcanada.com (speakers)...

Thanks

Thanks for the links I'll check them out.

What does the LX refer too? I've seen that in a few places now and have no idea...

Thanks

Hey Grips, I think you have been waiting for me !!! I live in North Delta B.C I think that will be close enough for you. The only place to buy any good parts in our neck of the woods is Lordco they pretty much can get anything ( eibach,magnaflow,k+n filters ect)Some really good tire shops aswell KXwheels, National tire wharehouse,west wheels, stay away from canadian tire. Nice to have someone local to talk to pm me any time to talk.
