Next time you head to the dealer just tell them to print you up a parts price quote and buy the parts from someone on here. It will save you up to 50% on parts. Parts that are sold over the shop counter are usually marked up an additional percentage over list price and we discount from list.
Example: SVX Timing Belt - 13028AA120
SVX Net Price - $79.96
Subaru List Price - $99.95
Dealer Mark-Up Price - $114.94
The dealership might be a little pissy but on the other hand they might try to match the prices and then you could have a local place to pick up a discount.
