Best/cheapest place to buy OEM accessories

I need mats and sill trims. Considering Bernardi, College Hills and any other suggestions. I'd love free shipping but I doubt if anyone offers it.

So give me your ratings on Fit accessory suppliers, please.

Thanks.

I usually check between Bernardi & College Hills- to see who is least expensive after shipping is included. Bernardi now offers a shipping discount
for FF members. https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/bern...-discount.html

Also try Honda and Acura Accessories dot com - Genuine Factory Honda and Acura Accessories at discount prices.

Thanks, it seems all of them are within a couple of bucks of each other. Any difference in customer service? I'm leaning toward Bernardi b/c of the nice offer of a shipping discount.

I have ordered from all 3 and received speedy shipping with items well packed & rec'd in good condition.
I have only had experience returning an item to College Hills for a part I decided not to use--I think they deducted a re-stocking charge--you might want to view the return policies for each just in case.

College Hill's will bend you over the table when it comes to shipping. I was going to order some parts totally $11.00. They then wanted $13.00 for shipping! I said F that mess and drove to the local dealer and got my parts for $10.00

I like Bernardi, however since I live in the same state of "Taxachusetts" I'm already stuck with paying 6.25% more.

Earnhardt Honda in Arizona. http://www.oepartsmegastore.com/

They also have an eBay storefront.

I just picked up a cargo cover from them for $120 shipped. Service was great and shipping was quick. Donnie Ramsey is the contact at Earnhardt Honda.

I'll never do business with Bernardi again.... The amount charged for shipping on my last purchase was ridiculous.. What would have been a $ 23.00 charge was something like $120.00 or more.. My memory is getting bad but I know the parts weighed 6Lbs and the guy at the Fedex store was shocked about the amount they charged me.
