Default Best place for "Junkyard Level" parts?

Hi,

I need a few small unimportant yet annoying parts for my car, and i like to avoid dealers at all costs. Does anyone know of any breakers yards where i can order over the phone - even for small stuff?

Our local junk yards/pull a part do not have anything like S Types in the yard, and all the ones that do wont let you go in there, or sell me the bits i need, they only seem interested in major items.

It's basically seat belt anchor covers, "latch" parcel shelf anchor covers, drop down sunglasses compartment.....bit's of stuff like that. Dealer would charge me an arm and a leg when all added up.

You may want to try East Coast Auto Source

http://www.ecoastauto.com/

1-800-869-0655.

They have a parts lookup feature.

Try www.car-part.com . This is an online search tool that links customers to breakers. It is sometimes frustrating since it uses generic parts catagories. I've had luck looking for something close then contacting a listing yard. And, as always check with a forum sponser first...
