Lightbulb Cheap Priced Mercedes Genuine Parts?!?

Thought i might share this with my fellow C32/C55 owners on here... The website says they're genuine parts and the prices are relatively cheaper than dealership costs. so next time you're changing your brakes or what not, maybe the parts will be cheaper here..

Oh and if anyone knows a cheaper place to buy genuine parts PLEASE speak up

whoops forgot the site:

Thanks for this information!

I've been looking for a BMW interior part for the last 2 weeks. The cheapest I found was $72 at a discount online shop.

These people have it listed for $48! That's a huge savings.

Good info. I used OEM parts tell it changed and everything came in Mercedes packaging, all of it was OEM parts. This sight looks the same. The other one is Mercedespartspeople.com They have the same service. They are a group of dealers in the north west that sell OEM Mercedes parts online.

Have you ever purchased anything from them? Here is what the actual policy from their web site is:
Shipping Costs: No more than 15% of total order or a minimum of $10.99 * does not apply to large component items.
They may first calculate it at 15% on the web, but then when the order is actually processed, the shipping will be recalculated.

Sounds like you've dealt with them before, do they really sell mercedes benz parts if so im about ready to make the purchase from them despite the high shipping price, but if what you say is true im sure the shipping will drop theres no way shipping can cost $55.

heres a price comparison of the two sites:

I was buying OEM and that is what I received. Just from memory, I purchased 2 cams, gears for the cams, 18 rockerarms, gaskets, MAP sensor, IAT sensor, Y-pipe,and other items. Don't let the domain name fool you. They are not the only ones selling genuine mercedes parts.

I have WIS and EPC installed. You can purchase a copy on ebay, or you can purchase an online subscription here. http://www.startekinfo.com/StarTek/
OEM catalog is the right palce to order from, I just can't tell if you are ordering the right parts.
