Timing belt change
Hello everyone i'm new to this forum.
I have a 98 honda Accord Ex with 110,000 miles. I was told from the seller that at this miles I should replace the timing belt. I know I have to replace several parts like timing belt, water pump, ect. The dealers charges me almost 1,000 dollars for parts and labor.
Where can I get quality parts for less $$$?
Is there anyone in here who leaves in Illinois???
Thanks.
Any help is appreciated.

If you have a garage I'll do it for you for $400 
It's actually not that hard to do, you just need the tools and patience. I did it on my old Accord V6 and need to do it on my current one soon.
Manchester Honda is a good place, I always buy parts from them. Very fast shipping and good prices.

Great dealer site, with excellent prices. I saved ~38% on parts over the cost of a local dealer near me in PA for the timing belt, water pump, balance shaft belt and tensioners for my Girlfriends '95 Prelude SE.

Although I like and use Majestic for a lot of dealer items, another online store is autohausaz. They have very good prices, decent shipping and I haven't had any problems with the ordering or the parts I've used. I got all of my timing belt related stuff from them this past spring for my 96 Accord, everything was fine. I have used them in the past on my Civics and BMWs also, no problems.
