Does anyone have a list of canadian parts suppliers/dealers for 914's? Locally, Autoparts Plus could only get me wheelbearings and nothing else. Online websites would be great.
Thanks,

There are one parts place here in BC that I use for not so hard to find stuff, AVR imports however they source parts out of the States as well 1 604 852 9024( they may not ship to Winepeg). If you are looking for used parts the club is a fantastic resource... Other than that I ship to a Package company just on the other side and bring it across myself then its just gst and pst. Its about 1 hour away for you or so and I hear there is no speedlimit on the 75( I used to live in Morris)
all the best

I am 15 min from the border, just across the line there is a shipping place that has an American address that you can ship to....so if you are ordering parts from anywhere in the States I ship them to this address and the pakage place phones me when the stuff gets in....Voila run through the border pick it up and run back pay my gst/pst / no gst if it is manufacured in the states /german yes.... Now I don't know if they have a sevice like this in your parts, You may just have to split for brokerage fees worst case
goodluck

Does he have used parts? or an email address? I'm not looking for anything too specific right now, but more browsing different places. I noticed you're from the peg. How many 914s would you say there are in the city? I've never seen any. -L |
The usual....very very friggin' cold. The brass 's ballz won't survive. Need steel ones to live here.

Bruce, is that Gord that owns RGR Autoparts? |
Hey thanks Bruce....right now, I think my TPS is screwed...and I've been looking for a good one to clean up over the winter. Could use a new brake handle too (but may have a line on one) Other than that just need odds and ends. Do any of the local junkers have 914s in their yards? Side note - I looked at a yellow one last year that should have been put in a yard.

The places the others have listed are good. If you have part numbers cip1 is very good on prices. They are vw only but a great deal crosses over. Altrom is ok. Concept1 is a good vw shop in town (calgary) I think they do some internet business. Mike I love your avatar. Corner gas rocks.
What engine is the TPS for?
2.0L

It was at a dealer in the north-east end. It was also listed in the trader...and it was very sad to see a 914 in that condition. Even the brake lines were corroded. The dealer wanted like 4k for it...I was like

After spending much hard earned money ordering parts from PP and various other places....I have finally come across a Canadian parts warehouse that seems to stock a good mix of parts. I haven't ordered from them but will probably do so sometime in the near future.
