    Good suggestion, thanks.

    Only one hit for Small car Parts Ltd.
    Trouble is that it is on a site called "Agieslist" and they wont accept me as a member because I cannot register a "legitimate address".

    Looks like if you don't live in the USA you are "illegitimate"!!!!

    Better tell my Mum.

    Any other suggestions.
    I really want (need) those parts and can't locate them all here in Australia.

    I think you must mean "Angie's List"....that's a fee/membership deal where members write reviews of any business they care to report on. I wouldn't think it's as useful as the BBB info is.

    I'm going to do some searching & see what I can find.


    p.s....Ironic....Lorton, VA is where my VX came from.....

    Remember that life is not measured in the breaths you take, but rather in the moments that take your breath away.

    Wow PK, that company DOES look outstanding. The ebay feedback, the volume of sales, not ONE single negative feedback...isn't that pretty rare in the automotive parts business???

    I can't find anything in the Better Business Bureau listings. I see the founder's name is listed in the ebay listing....but I couldn't find anything on him specifically. The website is professional and has contact info.
    I think it's looking really good. You'd have the ebay/PayPal $ protection for the timing belt kit (I think it applies to other countries), not sure on the other misc. parts he got for you.

    Thanks Sue,
    to be honest I have been very surprised by their quick responses and willingness to help.
    Prices are good as well.
    I think I will bite the bullet and go for it.
    They couldn't be bad in business and have a 100% ebay score with that many sales.

    Thanks for looking.

    I will report back on the outcome.

    Regards

    PK

    Even more ironic'er ... I drive through Lorton 10 times a week & never once saw a maroon/black/pink/purple VX.
