    eurocarparts

    i was just wondering what the forum members opinions are on parts supplied by eurocarparts.I know i ordered a coil from them and it seems to be ok and about half the price,but parts for the steering and suspension, are they as good as the genuine parts??
    many thanks

      Some parts are OEM, some are not, the steering ans suspension stuff is not normally OEM but they keep a range of stock by different manufacturers for the same part.

                    GSF German Swedish and French - similar to Eurocarparts
                    My local GSF is at the end of the road so I use them more often than Eurocarparts

                          Eurocarparts came about because the guy who started it used to be a partner at GSF, he had a falling out and went and setup a rival company.
