    Hello, I bought 2003 Tacoma 2.7l PreRunner. Will add pictures later. Love it. I would to know which websites that I can trust to buy parts ? Not a counterfeit, I am in Canada. What about RockAuto.com ?

    Remains to be seen I bought the tires and wheels the rest came along
    Maybe Check in the Canada Thread . They would have a much better idea .

    I know cross border shipping can be expensive some vendors will not even ship to Canada .

    Good luck!

    If McGeorge Toyota [based in Richmond, Virginia] will ship to you, I'd recommend them. They get orders processed and shipped fast, and seem to sell their parts at very low price points [I assume they make their money on volume sold, vs. stupid markups like many other Toyota dealers]. If you're asking more for aftermarket parts, there's tons of places to go, but do so at your own risk. Anything of real importance on your truck is worth replacing with OEM Toyota parts. You'll pay a premium compared to parts store, aftermarket branded parts, but they'll last far longer, and save you doing the job over again when the cheap, aftermarket part fails prematurely.

    My apologies for late reply. Thank you guys, I will look in Canada but I notice most 1 st gen parts are more easy to find in US than here. McGeorge Toyota that I will look into it. Definitely shipping will cost me plus duty fee.
