Default Where do you get your wiring components?

I am looking to do some wiring on my truck and was wondering where everyone gets their components from. I'm thinking of things like switch boxes, power distribution blocks, high current solenoids, etc.

I kind of live in the middle of nowhere so online dealers would be most helpful but I will take brick and mortar as well.

Thank you!

I've ordered all of mine from either eBay or Amazon.

Amazon US =/= Amazon Canada. We have much less selection than you guys do. Prices are higher for some bogus reason too.

It seems, but maybe I'm wrong, but you make a little more $$$ per hour than we do in the USA. I wouldn't swear to this either, but I think your shipping is a little more too.Hopefully one of your Canadian buds will chime in and advise you.To be honest with you and nothing against Canadians, but I always assume (bad) that I'm answering a American,sorry about that.Bob

Haha not a problem, generally a pretty safe assumption I think. I've been looking around a bit and I think I will just buy some relays and switches and make my own box.

I shouldn't be complaining about prices I do alright, even compared to our standards.
