Hi all, can anyone tell me where is a good place to get spare parts for my GT4. apart from a Toyota garage that is.

Specifically, I need replacement cig lighter, but I also would like to know of any good sites to go to for general parts, rather than pay the rip off prices of Toyota (£6 for a generic Cig lighter, £34 for a Toyota one!) but before I fit a generic one, I was just wondering if there are any good sites that we can go to get spare parts??

TCB parts is a great place for parts, new and used, very good prices and next day delivery mostly.

I rate them very highly :D

Seconded! Also, in my experience Toyota spares prices are sometimes quite variable. Really depends what you are afted. Worth checking. The quality is also a lot better than most generic parts so worth bearing in mind.

TCB seems good for genuine Toyota parts, beware the aftermarket parts though, it's the same stuff as anywhere else and very variable in quality.

I've had success getting small bits by visiting people who are breaking cars on Ebay.

For price and service you'll find Amayama hard to beat. I needed a TCA for my 205. In UK cheapest worked out at about £300. Amayama sent me one (From Dubai) for £182 + £30 post. Took about 6 days, came via DHL and was a genuine O/E part. They even have an excellent parts catalogue complete with prices.
