Default Where do you buy new parts

I'm new to buying Lexus parts and besides the local dealer what other options are there?

I'm looking in particular for a *new* turn switch/stalk for 97-01 models.

I appreciate recommendations based on your experience.

I usually buy from Rock Auto if they have the part in their catalog, otherwise I go to a Toyota Dealer for a Lexus/Toyota common part and as A LAST RESORT I go to the Lexus Stealership if I need the part right away.
I have purchased a lot of parts from Sewell too if I can wait a few days for shipping....... PLUS they are a supporting vendor here with excellent service.

Whats wrong with your turn signal switch, is it acting up? You might just have to clean the terminals:

If you have amazon prime, many times, it will be cheaper to get the part from them vs. RockAuto. I use RockAuto to make sure I get the correct part # and then do a comparison with Amazon.
My rebuilt calipers were a good bit cheaper through Amazon (w/ Prime) and I did not have to pay a core charge and return the old calipers.
