Way OT - buying Chevy parts online...
<img src="graemlins/offtopic.gif" border="0" alt="[offtopic]" />
I know this isn't the kind of thing we usually talk about on this forum, but I was hoping one of you might be able to help me out.
The day before yesterday a semi whizzed passed my wife while she was sitting still waiting to turn off her exit (rush hour on I-295). This guy came so close that he hit her drivers side mirror, and demolished it. She didn't get any info from the semi - it all happened so fast.
I just called my local chevy dealer, and got quoted $309 for a replacement mirror!!! It's electric AND heated (like we need that in florida).
So anyway I was hoping that one of you knows a good (cheap) place online where I can buy OEM Chevrolet parts. It's a 2000 Blazer LT by the way.
Sorry for being so OT - but at least it's automobile related!
Thanks!
MJ

Do yourself a favor, and get a used mirror! Check this site out:

I got a used grille to my Honda Accord for $25. Dealer wanted $130!

If you did not want to spend the cash now you could try JC Whitney for some cheaper replacement mirrors. There's probably a junkyard close by that might have your mirror too. Did a quick search on Yahoo and tried this place: <a href="http://www.oem-car-parts.com/default.htm?ref=chevroletpartsdirect" target="_blank">http://www.oem-car-parts.com/default.htm?ref=chevroletpartsdirect</a>
