Default Anyone willing to help out a Canadian Jag owner?

Hi guys, figure I would ask on here for some assistance from a fellow Jag owner in the north east.

So I'm missing this driver-side coil pack cover for my jag.

I found this replacement at a great price ($25), but they ONLY ship within the USA. I called and tried to see if they could make an exception this one time, no dice.

I would like to ask a willing member on here to order this coil pack cover, and have it shipped to them. At which point, you will ship it forward to me in Canada.

I'll of course cover ALL costs plus something extra for your troubles! Paypal would be the best way for me to get the funds to you, so keep that in mind as well.

If ANYONE is willing to help me out here, I'll be forever grateful!

Here is a link to the coil pack cover and vendor in question.

Thanks,

If you are close to a border crossing you can also consider having it shipped to a UPS/Fedex office on a "will call" basis.

Yup, I would have certainly taken that route if it wasn't for the fact they refuse to ship to any address besides the cc/billing address... so that wouldn't do...

Oh well, doesn't seem anyone is interested. understandable.

Hey, sorry I'm late to the party, just saw this thread.

I might be able to help you out, I'm in Southern Ontario and I run across the border quite a bit.

Are you still looking for the part?

Left or right side? (I saw you said 'drivers side', and I'm thinking it means 'right side', as in looking at the engine, but I want to be sure)

I've been in the same boat and cannot understand a merchant's lack of willingness to ship cross border. Must be nice to be able to turn down a sale due to laziness.

Hey Oxford, thanks a lot man, indeed, by driver side, i mean the right side of the engine if you're standing in front of an open hood looking at the engine bay.

Simply crossing the border isn't going to cut it though if your intention is to have it shipped to a UPS pick up location in buffalo or something, because they say they will only ship to the billing address on the credit card, but if you have something in mind, let me know!

Sorry for the delay, busy with long weekend family things.


It's ordered, final tab is $37 with the shipping.

I'll let you know when I pick it up, probably next Monday or Tues.

Where are you located?

It may not be laziness Mikey, I did a similar thing for another member, picked up an item from Nalley and then shipped it on.
Nalley were contractually not allowed to sell to Canada
