that is a bit on the high end of cost, unless they are genuine Toyota parts. more likely fel pro, not worth that much, you can buy all of those new for about $35 individually from auto parts store, cheaper from Rock auto.

shipping costs to canada from rockauto are terrible, totally prohibitive. i think mark has also mentioned this before. it's a shame because otherwise i would use rockauto way more.

It's frustrating to see the US prices and then compare them to Canadian

you need to have a friend or relative on this side of the boarder that you visit regularly. On parts you are not in a hurry for, you have them shipped there and get them on your next visit state side.
