Where can I get an OEM dist cap? Ive searched online but

Im looking for a replacement Denso or stock Toyota dist. cap for my 3.0. Ive been looking online for places that sell OEM Toyota parts but keep getting re directed to places like autoparts warehouse and such. Anyone have a link to an actual online Toyota parts place? Id like to replace the autozone thermostat and rad cap that I had to install in a pinch with OEM as well... Thanks again! ~Matt

Talking HA! NOOO Stealer for me

After the head gasket job from hell I wont be going to my local dealership ever again!!! I bought one at Advanced Auto, it was some generic made in Italy, the nipple in the center that sends the juice from the coil to the plug wires burned off totally in about 4,000 miles!!! The last Denso stock cap held up great, Ive just got a little miss at cold start up and the cables are new, the NGK Iridiums only have about 8,000 miles on them so Im thinking the cap may be bad or cracked, its been on there for about 32,000 miles or so....

Question would it be safe to say the 89+ cap and rotor will fit my 88 3.0?

When I go to that site and find my truck by year the V6 isnt listed... When I put in that its a 1990, which should be the same engine as far as the cap and rotor go they have them and the price looks good! My 88 3.0 should use the same cap, rotor, thermostat and rad cap as a 90 right????

The cap and rotor should be the same. Go to this site http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/ and get the actual part numbers for any part on the truck and then enter the part number into Toyota of Dallas' parts home page. This has been working great for me.
