    my 2005 Prius has over 192,000 miles and it's time to replace the shocks and springs. I want to stay OEM and don't want to get ripped by the dealer so I will do the work myself. Where's the best place to buy parts online?
    Thanks!!

    I have a 2005 Prius as well and I replaced my suspension some time ago because my rear struts started leaking. I normally purchase my parts from RockAuto Auto Parts and I do a price comparison with amazon.com because sometimes it is cheaper. You can also do a search for 5% discount codes for RockAuto if you do choose to purchase from them.

    Hi sdtundra. Thank you for the offer but I placed the parts order yesterday through Camelback. I appreciate it though.
