I don't know about Worldpac one way or the other but for people living west of Toronto (Hamilton, Burlington, Mississauga, etc) I found Wide Open Throttle (http://www.wotnow.ca/Products.htm) to be good. WOT is a small one-man business and he might be working out of his house (don't know) but he is prompt, friendly, will track down stuff for you and delivered to my door for free (he lives close by). Bought a Pressure Bleeder from him. I also found Peninsula Imports (http://www.peninsulaimports.com/) to be as cheap as any for brakes and calipers. The service guy was quite on the ball and said he could get most things for Volvos. They tend to specialize in British cars but he had real lights for 740 and 240 cars sitting on the shelf when I went in last. The Volvo dealer nearby recommended I go to Peninsula to get calipers so that is a thumbs up. I find the main parts guy at Volvo in Oakville to be straight up, knowledgeable and friendly. He even ordered expensive parts for me (like a front ABS sensor for a 740) and didn't want money up front. What can I say; there are decent people out there! The best way to get rid of weeds is to grow good grass. We should profile the nice guys here more. All too often people, me included, are quick to complain and criticize and slow to compliment.
