Best place for OEM parts

I am looking to do a 3x3 tranny fluid change as well as the pressure switches soon. I also need a screw that holds the air filter housing to the lower housing.. I lost it changing the air filter. The local stealerships prices are ridiculous... 7 bucks for the air filter screw when it lists at like 4.17 and over 8 bucks a quart for the fluid. I googled a few places and with shipping it seemed alright but there was an extra "handling charge" that pretty much made it not worth my time. Thanks in advance.

For bits & peices, just go the dealer. For larger purcahses, use an Acura parts warehouse.

Also, sometimes, dealers will price-match the wholesale price.

Finally, many parts, including fluids, are often avaiable via Honda dealers for less than the Acura dealer.

ditto the honda dealer. I had an acura dealer price match the brake switch to ~12 (honda price/acuraoemparts.com). vs. I think $30 or so bucks. Good deal.
