Hi,
Since I live in The Netherlands the parts for the CTS have to be shipped to that country. This is extremely costly. For example: shipping the service manual is $175,-. I believe this price is outrageous (the manual itself cost about $115,-). Shipping E&G exhaust tips is $90,-. Do any of you know of a method/company of how to reduce these shipping costs?

the only way we can reduce our shipping costs to our vendors in spain is to ship more than one thing at a time, then the shipping dollar per product dollar ratio goes down ... but international freight isnt cheap

Major shippers are UPS, FedEx and DHL. Not sure if they are all international shippers. You usually don't have a choice. GMPD recently went to Flat Rate Shipping. Everything is $11.

So what i need to do is look for a vendor that sells all the items I need now. I need a Loyd ultimat black (no embroidery) carpet set, E&G exhaust tips and a 2005 CTS service manual. Any idea where I can buy these items at one supplier?

Hey Vienna! I went to the open house at the VVFD for years and years growing up. Then played ball at Waters for years.

Is this a fact with GMPD? I was just about to order a pair of CTS-V DRLs and I was being charged about $46 for each item...$92 total.

They are now using a "Flat Rate" of $10.95. I recently ordered some Hummer stuff.
