Rock Auto is terrible for shipping, unless the parts you want are all in the same warehouse, otherwise you get a shipping cost from each warehouse, and I've had orders for my Volvo that required four warehouses to supply material.

And WHEN (not if) they send you an incorrect part the buyer pays the return shipping cost. I don't mind paying the return shipping for my errors, but not for theirs.

I lean to NAPA and FLAPS. At least the FLAPS store has loaner tools.
