Why not just buy all of your parts from one vendor ? Buy it from the closest Quality vendor nearest to you. Then down the road when and if there is an issue all you have to remember is who you bought all of your parts from. All in all there will be little dollar savings between the 3 major players, and if three is a mis hap , you are shipping from the same state and not across the country. 
         This is the time to put in a new front glass and have your exterior door handles painted and get done nice Stainless Steel screw kits for lights and top.
