OEM....I think.

I'm replacing timing belt, ac belt, valve cover gasket, etc.

belts and gaskets do not really need to be OEM parts. OEM belt tensioners and water pumps are sometimes of higher quality, but the belt itself is generally about the same. gates or any big name brand should suffice. gaskets shouldn't really matter, so long as the material is the same.

try rockauto?

Yep Rockauto.com is great. And most OEM are not made by the car company so you are paying for the box, not the part.

"Is that the best price you can give me?" Works reasonably well. Luckily, there are lots of Honda dealers so you can easily try another one if you're shot down.

And yes, OEM parts aren't made by honda....but its not usually easy to find someone who will sell you the same part. I know that most mechanics can get them through their suppliers but beyond that........

There is an ebay store called TIMING BELT KIT PRO. They sell complete timing belt kits, and at least for Hondas, they are quality parts from many of the OEMs that Honda uses. You will probably only have to purchase plugs and antifreeze for a complete timing belt job. I have purchased three kits from them and have been extremely happy. You will save about 25%+ over any of the Honda internet sites. Give them a look.
