junk yard junkies

[bigbadnothing85]

lol i leave with any nut, bolt, switch, or sensor i can hide in my toolbox or on my person... interior swaps, i hoard alternators(boom boom system eats em up)... usually a spare master cylinder and booster that would be considered a junk yard "upgrade"... lol needless to say if i could fit the whole car in a buggy i'd take it piece by piece

I look for anything that's usually broken on my car, Legend lips, CD5 lips, anything good that I can get my hands on really. And if I don't have the money for it all I use the stash-n-stow method and come back for it later.

If you have anyone on here has a Pull-A-Part near them they should definately go to their site and "Request a Car" and they'll email you as soon as they get one on the lot. That's really helpful because I know if you aren't there within a few days of it getting there, its tore to hell and back.

i found:
coupe oem window visors
sedan oem window visors
5th gen oem fogs with harness
grey leather interior for coupe and sedan
burgandy leather interior for sedan
DC front and rear strut bars
tons of sunroof visors
sedan trunk luggage rack
acura and prelude black leather seats

and a ton of other stuff, but those stick in my mind because they where in the past 6 to 8 months

Yep, I found an actual oem Honda alarm one day. I was surprised. I'd looked that car over a few times, never saw it. Then, one day, a friend of mine and I were there, and BAM!! there it was.





Still has all the plugs intact, all the little sticker things on the wiring specifying where they go. A great find, I thought

I need the name and location of that junkyard.
I don't wanna step on your toes if that's your spot, though.





Dude, right on!
That stuff can pick a day, or full week, up.

question, where exactly did you find the alarm; do not mean which junk yard but where in the car?

[nine_deuce]

They had it under where the drivers seat was. There was no seat in it, but it was buried. Moved some stuff around, and there it was. We took the time to pull all the wiring, and to make sure all the plugs were intact.

The junk yards I go to were the shit back when I had my 240's. I found all the parts I needed for both of them. However, now that they are very popular they have become really hard to come by. As for my CB it hasn't failed me yet.

I got the same alarm in my car intact, the only thing that i don't have is the remote...

[wagonkid]

most of the yards around here have accords that been stripped to the point that they are crushed.And we do have a honda used part junk yard but any honda or acura past 17 years old he dont deal with anymore thats sucks i have to get my parts out of town now.

that exactly what i found , i also found these two "radio alarm " cards that went with the oem radio , i have the cards but didnt grab the radio, but i have the instruction and it was to prevent theives from stealing from the car , it said something about " if a thieve tries to steal your radio and the radio detects a voltage rating lower that normal, it would ring the alarm"

wow cool, just asking because it seems i have it on my CB, but it does not work and i do not have the remote.

but i finally found out what was that thing under my seat.
