You more than likely wont unless you have a Summit or Jegs local. Even those offer limited items for the HHR. Really depends on what you want. Any reason you won't order online? Prices are usually cheaper online vs. at a store. There's tons of vendors on here that cater to the HHR, you should really check them out to see what they have to offer.

Agreed. HHR accessories aren't sold in stores usually.

you can check out www.performanceimprovements.com they have a location in Hamilton, i hit the one in Brampton. they're not an HHR only place but they do sell a lot of aftermarket parts which i have purchased from them. Ebay is also another good place

And in Canada, it's even harder to find accessories for our HHR's. You can try the dealerships for Chevrolet made accessories (Mudflaps, vent visors, spoilers, floormats). Last time I got a quote for mudflaps, I went thank you, but no thank you. Very pricey. If you're looking for improvements on the handling or horsepower then Ebay or Canuck Motorsports. You'll have to include shipping.

Hello fellow Canadian, its alot to ship up here and most vendors on E-Bay won't ship to the great white north, Canuck motorsports were awesome for a lowering spring set, I found KYB struts and shocks cheaper to order online and pay the S/H and duty than pay CTC or GM Dealer prices, and as for rims or trailer hitch a trip over to USA should include a little shopping in NY or Pen.

Welcome Mischievous


WeatherTech has a shop on Walkers line just north of the QEW.
Last year I got my mats. Last week ordered their in track window vents.
"Vents are on back order at this time" so I gotta wait a bit.

A Performance Improvements guy in Etobicoke near my work told me that the same ICPW Led Taillights that Maggie from Race and Street sells were $500.00. I asked that he check again because I already knew that shipped to my door they were only $260.00 from Maggie. He said that $500.00 was correct.

Please shop around and know your prices for anything.

If you are needing tires I also suggest doing some homework and don't be afraid to drive a bit.
A month or so ago I was chatting with a fellow HHR owner in Oakville that found that for a 15 to 20 minute drive he could save $85.00 for the tires he was searching for. He went out to Stoney Creek instead of "buying local" Sorry don't recall the name of the tires or store.
Don't Be afraid to post what you are looking for. Someone may already know where to point you.

OK, apperantly I was totally and completely wrong. There's a crap ton of stuff around you......For some reason, I was thinking Burlington Vermont. I worked at the Burlington airport for a week some years back. Friggin Nor Easters or what ever aren't what this guy likes. Anything cold up north can stay up north. After that week, I'll keep my 98* with 80% humidity any day. Yes I'm a wuss!!
