Canadians! Where do you get your Prestolite CDI parts from?

Hey guys. I have a local guy I usually use for boat parts, however he may not know too much about this stuff. He's a rep for Western Marine (Vancouver) who is a distributor for CDI electronics, so it may work out.

If it doesn't though, who do you guys buy from?

I'm looking for a CDI 176-5095 Stator and a 116-5301 'Power Pack' CDI unit (Replaces Black).

Any recommendations appreciated.


Thanks,

Chay

I buy stuff like that from ebay, eh?

Michigan is 45 minutes away so usually I have it shipped to a depot and clear customs myself.

It ended up that my local guy could get the parts, but with a $250 premium over ordering off the web. Pretty typical for Canada. No idea why we need to get soaked on all our car and boat parts.

I ended up going with go2marine. It seems like they have a decent rep.

Now I wait for shipping. And wait....


Looks like ebay would have been about $50 cheaper. Oh well!

I'll pay a bit over web just to support a local business. But not twice the price.
