99 accord

my lower gas filler neck split at the fitting and is leaking

the dealer wants $30 plus it must be ordered ( about 4 day wait )

is there a better place online to order this oddball Honda part

I figure if I must wait anyway maybe I could save a few $$$ for this
overpriced radiator hose

thanks

On such a specialized part such as this, that I have never really heard of
failing, I would doubt any other company would invest any time/money in
producing one of these items. I believe your best bet is to keep your ass
from blowing up by purchasing the part at the dealer. All of this of course
is just my guess on the matter.

After you pay S&H, you probably won't really save any money anyway.
I've always been able to get parts from the dealer the next day, excepting
weekends.

Well said!
