Do you source them yourself or go to a mechanic?

    For most stuff like brake pads, wipers, or bulbs I have used Autozone or O’Reilly, not really picky about either. When I needed the occasional expensive thing like batteries or an alternator I would check prices first and pick the one that was lower for the one I wanted.

    This was mostly due to needing the thing right away, so I’m paying a little more for convenience.

    I also used LKQ a couple times over a decade ago for junkyard parts like a headlight housing that was damaged.

    Haven’t had to do the expensive stuff for quite a few years, just wipers and the occasional brake pads.
