I've just been pricing up some Hyundai parts and Amazon came up with a well known brand at $18NZ. - freight free 8 days. Best local price for nongenuine I could find was $174.
Ive found if you have the genuine part number a google of the number often turns up a few sites with the appropriate part both genuine and aftermarket

Make and model mat? kecal - minisport, minispares and med-engineering among others, are all very reliable for freighting mini parts. Just need to choose you quality level.

I have used Rexbo as well, very pleased. About to place another order, including parts for my girlfriend's odd cars (ke30 and Subaru ace). Who would have thought it's easier to find parts for old/odd jap cars than in nz

To be fair that's a generic copy part whereas Toyota will only have original Toyota part. though still a stupid price agreed.

i am just researching parts for a daihatsu mira , the guy has had his balljoint rebuilt 2 times now in the last 6 month the first time for free under warranty , because they could not find a balljoint for the mira, so i said i try find him a new balljoint but no guarantee but looks like i found it on rexbo as the mira is called the cuore in europe. So why do i have to import parts from germany for a japanese car . thats byone me but its what we seem to need to do to finally have a fully new balljoint whom is part of the suspension on this make well so be it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daihatsu_Mira
