Tried to order a few vacuum parts for myself here in Canada. Couldn't do it because there are no "International" orders. Is that changing soon? I don't feel "International"!

I recall a similar question coming up in the past. Try a search for "Canadian Parts" and there will be referrals to a few parts places in your northern neighborhood.

Fastlane does not ship north of the border for reasons unknown.

Sources open to us Northerners include

www.dieselgiant.com
www.autopartsonlinecanada.com

the last one is good as they are in Canada so no import duty Figure on 10 to 15% import duties on parts ordered from the US - ouch!

If you search the "good shops" forum there is also a listing of a fellow in BC that supplies MB parts.

A good OEM parts outfit may also be able to source parts .....

I think they drop ship so it would become too complex perhaps. I also questioned this policy awhile back as I wanted to support the site.

A word of advice. If you buy parts from the US, DO NOT let them ship UPS. They will rape you on customs charges. Post is best, followed by DHL and Fedex.
