Where's the best place to get parts?

I've looked at places like brotherstrucks.com; lmctrucks.com; classindustries.com; chevyduty.com, but I have no idea who has the best quality parts for our blazers. My interior was blue and I just gutted everything out of there and I want to change it to saddle so right now I just want to work on the interior. Any recommendations???

Re: Where's the best place to get parts?

if you are not worried about keeping it original i think an upolstery (spelling?) shop would be the least expensive way to go. the repop stuff is expensive and if you dont know how to install you'll have to go to the shop anyway. im gonna get my floors line-exed and an local shop (king covers in san leandro) is gonna do the seats / door panels / rear panels. and im gonna do my own center console. depends on what you are looking for. i like ebay for all the misc. interior stuff like window cranks, arm rest...etc. and dont for get to check out the parts board.

Most of the parts are all the same at all the vendors. I try to support the board vendors when possible.

The board vendors prices are usually competitive and the customer service is unbeatable.

I would pick the one closest to you, especially if you need big parts (Shipping costs)
