Possibly heading to Calgary tomorrow, thinking of trying one of the local "Pick Your Butt" places for some parts.....where would be a good place(s) to try?

Just thought I'd look for things I could toss on my daughter's manche....like the kick panel lights.  The wiring is there in all the MJ'ss, but they never actually put the lights in them.

Depends on what I getting but as a min, multidriver screw driver, vice grips, my pocket leatherman(always have it, knife, pliers.....), large flat blade screw driver, and a socket set, possibly an adjustable wrench. Plus any special tools that I know I'll need to get a particular part. If I go alone  I'll often leave the tools in the car, scout things out, figure which rig has what I want and tehn go back for the tools. Cuts down on the wandering around time pushing a wheel barrow full of tools.
