Ever use Summit to order Mercedes parts?

I've ordered from them for 20 odd years, and just noticed they have some select Mercedes parts (and lots of universal stuff you can use on them). I had NO idea they carried, shocks, struts, Moog front end stuff, ect.. for the old MBs... and they ain't even turned into JC Whitney yet.

Not sure how the prices are, other then cheaper then the dealer, lol. Now I wonder if Jegs has Mercedes stuff as well?

Ever try Fastlane at the top of the screen? Phill is a great guy and his prices beat the dealers by a large margin....AND he pays to support this forum too.

If its not on online catalog he can still get it....at great prices.

Nope, I'm just getting back into this. Oddly enough, I've been online for 7 years, but really just started ordering stuff (besides Ebay) online for the last, maybe, 2 years. Otherwise I just got stuff from catalogs, be it, Summit, Jegs, JC Whitney, 4 Wheel Parts, ect... I actually still order most of my stuff from catalogs, lol.

I don't mean car stuff either, just about everything. I miss the big Sears catalog...

Don't go to ebay first...you can overpay on far too many items....same with where you looked...Ebay primer pumps start at $20 plus shipping I can buy them for half that $ I just got a Bosche new style pump for $9.25................You've got Phill at Fastlane...a great guy ....then there is Rusty at BuyMBZ.org also a great guy....and your got Autahauz (spelling in AZ) ebay is rarely the lowest price place....nor are most catalogs, they price high becasue they can't change prices up and down with the market...

Go with Fastlane on your Mercedes parts.

I have used Summit on the Mustang parts and have been happy with them. Not to sure I would use them for Mercedes.

Fastlane

I've gotten stuff from fastlane a few times now. The stuff is uality, the prices are great and the shipping is very fast. I'd put them in the same category with McMaster as far as fast shipping is concerned. My stuff reaches me (on the west coast) usually in 2-3 days after I place the order.
