Where to buy coils, plugs, wires in Washington DC for good price?

Heading to washington DC at the end of next week and rather then spend about $800 for coils, plugs and wires (without installation) here in canada, wanna pick them up in the US somewhere.

Any suggestions or places to call that will have them in stock or at least within a couple days?

Guessing anywhere between $250 and $280 would be an ok price.

Thanks.

They do, i went thru the checkout procedure and it was about ~$50 shipping for just the coils (at the lowest rate) via UPS, so i'd have to pay another $70 when it got here for brokerage.

figure its just easier to pick it all up in the states when im there.

Also addresses and/or phone numbers would help with any suggested locations.

Thanks guys, appreciate the help!

You should be able to place an on-line order at Rosenthal (AKA finishline performance) and specify pickup. That will get you the internet price - which may be better than the walk-in price - and no shipping chatge.

Rosenthal Tyson's Mazda also does internet sales, with a pick-up, no shipping option. Internet prices are discounted. Don't know how their prices compare to Rosenthal Arlington, though.
