Les was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I went and they’re not knowing what I needed and left not just knowing what I needed, but exactly what I was needed for and how the product works beneficial to myself and my vehicle. Kind and attentive thank you 🙏

Very helpful staff - parts are mostly always in stock - you can order online and pick up the item in the store or have it delivered - prices are very fair for the quality of the products. Lots of choices to consider when ordering parts for your car, new or old.

Awesome customer service, some of my parts incomplete or missed label, but the guys took care of the situation and found the right one.
