Discount OEM parts? I need a fuel sending unit for my 99

Does anyone know a good place to get OEM parts online? Or do we .org members get a discount anywhere? It's been awhile since I've been on here. My fuel sending unit is cracked on the top leaking fuel when I have a full tank.

Thanks!

What I do is find the exact Nissan Part Number I need and use it to search via Google. I usually go 10 pages deep to find the place with the lowest shipped to my door price.

Now some OEM parts are made by others and also sold by Beck/Arnley and others and can be half the price of buying from Nissan, despite being the exact same part in another "Manufacturer's" box.

And if that's the case, look for Promo Codes for Rock Auto and those places to find the lowest shipped price.

Sorry I don't have better news. But after going through this process, you will know to your core you got the best price.

^^^^ What KP said. I will do this and sometimes find a good deal.

A place with consistently low prices (which are many times the lowest), check out parts.com. Next is nissanpartsdeal.com then courtesyparts.com.

Right now rockauto.com has a 5% discount promo going on until 10/31/2017. Type in MMSEPT8 into the "how did you hear about us" box.

Thanks for the replies! Dealer around me wanted $180 for the sending unit and $20 for the o-ring. I just ordered from coutesyparts.com for total of $160 shipped.

Thanks again!
