I used GMParts direct for some things for my Avalanche that I needed. Had no problems with them. That was prior to having the Vette. Now I would support Gene or other forum vendors.

I've used both. Very similar website order procedure for both. No problems either way, but GMPartsDirect usually is higher shipping (you have to "pretend" you're checking out to get the shipping costs, then just hit your browser Back button at the last minute to get out). Gene from GMPartsHouse is much more responsive to questions with personal emails. Emails I've received from GMPartsDirect seem impersonal and computer-generated (just my interpretation). After you've checked them both (with shipping), don't forget to check AutoZone - they have alot more parts for your car than you think - even one's you'd think are GM-only. GMPartsHouse and GMPartsDirect are both usually about half of what either of my local dealership charge. AutoZone is usually about half of the two internet sites. So far no quality issues with any parts from anybody (dealerships, GMPartsHouse, GMPartsDirect, or AutoZone).
