When buying from rockauto, beware of the shipping cost that can be excessive for some heavy parts.
How long are you going to keep the vehicle? A plastic one may serve you just fine. In that case, consider a Mopar unit as an option.

The plastic ones in Canada are more expensive or same price as metal ones +- $50 at least from my mechanic , he said if he installs it'll be 500 for aluminum dorman and 400 for plastic mopar which will ceack again .

I plan to use it and then get my other vehicles ready to be sold . So maybe 5 or more years, these planned times often turn into double or triple, by themselves.

Shipping costs suck, yeah , so I'd have to order more than a dollar amount or more stuff

...

In the US all packages are $9.99 if shipped from the same warehouse no matter how heavy the box. They sticking it to the Canucks?

'14+ use the same filter as the metal ones come with.

Rockeauto shipping is weird. The cost for shipping of two strut assemblies, as an order, is quite a bit more than if the assemblies are ordered separately.

Parts Avatar (Canada's answer to Rockauto) is a good place to get parts. Free shipping over a certain $ value ($99.00). Works out good for brake parts. Can often get better prices on Amazon though.

Do you have a commercial account?
Because it doesn't work that way for me. Most of my orders start at $9.99 for USPS and $12.99 for FedEx or UPS, and go up from there. For example for pads and rotors all around shipping is $32.98 for FedEx or $52.98 UPS.

I avoid USPS as the shipping time is usually longer than estimated, and UPS and FedEx are usually quicker than estimated.

Nope. I've only seen prices like that for express shipping.
