would be my guess that it was EE. shouldn't be any problem shipping them to Canada other than possibly more time than in the US.

I have them for my RR and am quite impressed with them.

cool thanks for the info guys
yea I thought it might take longer from EE since I have to email them first and then give them my credit card stuff....
damn I wish we had a place like the EE up here in Canada, from the products and services on their website, they rock =)

Usoff,
I just placed my first order with EE, the entire exchange, from email inquiry to CC payment was FAST and painless. I've dealt with other vendors, many of whom are popular on Dweb, and EE's process is far superior.
Plus, you are dealing with the owners throughout,so if there are any questions or issues, there is no BS involved.
Not sure of the shipping charges and exchange rates regarding Canadian purchases, but if you order from them, you won't be disappointed in how quickly they respond.
Good luck,
Jack

I have had great success in ordering parts from the US, everyone that I have dealt with has been courteous and quick. But Jack, you hit it on the nail, the shipping charges are high and the duty / brokerage fees may make you cry. The best for shipping that I have experienced in actually usps airmail is cheap and faster than UPS. Items that do pass through customs are not scrutinized as much as they are through couriers like UPS.

Just my $.02

Usoff - have you considered giving a 4x4 shop down in blaine or bellingham a call. I'll bet that if they 'installed it' you could have EE ship to the shop. That way you avoid the extra shiping and brokerage.
