Once you get used to it, its actually a little easier (at least I think)
You can shop directly from your garage, I like that.
I think they are trying to simplify like FCP

But as the woman call me I am a Tech-Dork, or Computer Nerd, or sometimes As*Hole.. LOL

Youll get used to it.

I actually contacted them to tell them how much of an improvement their site is. For 850s, click through four pages of all the products offered for that car...easy as a fat girl.

The real screw up was 4 years ago when both IPD and FCP revamped their respective web sites. FCP used to have parts diagrams right out of VADIS...made purchasing so much simpler. At the time, I called up Nick at FCP and bitched for at least 15 minutes. Oh well, at least FCP's beta site, fcpeuro, rocks!

Well, I clicked several times and still could not find the upper tail lights for the 850 wagon, only the lower. And everthing is thrown together. I use to be able to just click to the section that I wanted and check prices in less than 2 minutes. Now it takes time just to find what I'm looking for. I was there for 10 minutes and could not get the lights.

I guess I'll get use to it. More like a auto parts store than an information system.

I agree w/rspi on this one; it doesn't work for me at all. Hope they fix it soon..
