Saving on Car Recycled Parts
Save money on car recycled parts when you have a breakdown. In this time of hard economic times, using car recycled parts is a good option. Lots of vehicles are being re-cycled in the salvage yard and a great selection of CHEAP used parts can be bought from them.
Two weeks ago, I clipped the side mirror of my kid’s 95 Geo Metro after she got her newer 2001 Honda Civic. I was working on my basement renovation when the drywall I was moving hit the side mirror. The new one was roughly about $100-$200 from the dealer and checking with a couple of auto salvage yard, they were asking between $65-$75 for a used one.
Here is where car recycled parts is better if you go to a salvage yard that allows you to get it yourself. For a $1 fee, you can go inside the salvage yard with your tools and find the used part you need.
Tip for car recycled parts:
You can save your time for searching the yard by getting a computer print out of car recycled parts inventory. It will give you the different car models where the part is common and available instead of looking only for your specific vehicle. I paid another $1 for this but sure helped me find the part I need quickly.
After half an hour, the car recycled parts I need was found and removed which I paid about $14 instead of the $65 or $75 had I gotten it from a used parts salvage yard counter. This is another example of saving money in your vehicle if you want your driving cost down. shown on top is the side mirror I bought after I got it installed in my kid’s 95 Geo Metro.
Note on buying car recycled parts from the salvage yard:
You need some basic tools and instructions to remove the used part from the salvage yard. You can get that FREE information from your public library or direct from me if you are a member of ATS. Membership is particularly helpful if working with difficult to access and expensive car recycled parts.
Thanks!
