So far it looks like contacting/knowing a parts manager is the best way to go based on everyone's input. Anyone know the best way to approach the parts manager on this? Like what aspects are negotiable/non-negotiable?
Correct. Most US dealers won't ship to Canada. Plus the duty shipping (and the exchange rate) you'd be better off making local arrangements with your dealer in Vancouver. Most will start you off with 10% off. As I said, if you're a regular shopper with them, it'll increase over time.
