the way I went about it, I went to the dayco site

Dayco Catalog - Unites States & Canada

punched in the year make and model and the part number popped up

http://www.daycoproducts.com/part?oe_number=305315&part_number=89315

then there was a tab called (bottom right of the last page) "need this part?" [find stores]

I clicked on that and punched in "Manchester MD" (because I didn't pay attention and I got you confused with @ragtopfury , so the store in hampstead might not be as close as I thought)

so, once I popped in "Spokane WA" I got this

Where to Buy

since the advance auto store told me he could order it directly from the manufacturer, I would call them first

I went through pretty much the exact same process this morning, minus the bit about calling the store.

I thought I found a source at PepBoys.com, until I tried to add it to a cart. Then it just gave me a red circle and wouldn't let me pick the button. Made me think of that old computer joke where the "No" button moves all over the screen when you try and pick it.
