I have always found NAPA to carry quality parts. Sometimes they are a little more expensive but they have always deen high quality.

NAPA parts are fine in my book. Most of their parts are made by name brand manufacturers.

Napa

Everytime I have been in my local napa here in Georgia the parts have been overpriced and the quality has been low. Just my 2 cents.

The 'general' quality is good in all major part stores.

The remanufactured parts are what you should stray away from. Buy new whenever possible.

Well it depends the Napa. Napa is the only parts store IN my town so it doesnt give you to many options. There are 2 guys at the store that know things and then the rest of the staff is clueless. I went to go buy a new dome light bulb and the guy told me that this one bulb would work in my firebird. HA! The bulb was only half the size of the normal bulb! What an idiot!. But, like i said, they are the only parts store in town.

I know this a little off topic but Zuckuss88GTA if I saw David Hassolholf and Garry Coleman in front of my car I'd probably hit them.

Garry Coleman ""shudder""
