I've only dealt with RockAuto ... wasn't particularly pleased with the
experience.  Bought wiper refills that were listed to fit the wife's Toyota;
but in fact they only fit aftermarket wiper blades, not the original blades.
RockAuto agreed to sell me the parts I thought I had ordered, if I would pay
shipping both ways plus a 20% restocking fee.

Buying a cat for my friend's Miata (that I drive sometimes) turned out a
whole lot better ... local muffler shop had the part in stock and installed
it in less than an hour.  Price was quite reasonable, too; although he did
have to raise his estimate after seeing the car.  Apparently the 96 model
takes a different, more expensive cat than he had quoted me.  But the car
passed the smog test with flying colors, so I was happy (as was my friend).
Not bad for a car with 130,000 miles and a JK Jackson blower.
