Parts Wreckers in Sydney

Postby BZC-45S » Thu Feb 23, 2012 5:29 pm

Hi guys and girls,

Does anyone know if any wreckers in Sydney have a regular supply of CJ Lancer parts? The model may be too new to show up in numbers (and let us hope our peers don't have a tendency to get into accidents alot and hence supply the wreckers with spare parts).

I just thought it might be useful for those who may want to find spare parts or replacements... but I just had another thought that MMAL warrants these cars for 5/10 years so there's really no real need for say replacement ignition coils or alternators.

Nevermind, let me get into my specifics: I bought my car used, and of course there are one or two things missing that I'd like to get replacements for. Namely one of the plastic screw threads that attaches the cover to the car's battery, and the plastic door to gain access to change the bulbs on the back of the hatch door - I have one of them missing.

Finding CJ's is wreckers is very hard, especially RA and Evo's.

Insurance companies want more then wreckers are prepared to pay so they get crushed. It breaks my heart especially Evo and RA's as a few parts I would like to swap.

You probably will find only a few that were not insured being wrecked.

Buddy if we come across any wreckers beside the one Phil has mentioned we will update it in this thread.
Maybe a mod can make this a sticky?

As it will help out other members aswell :)

I contacted them once for price on window visors and tail lights, for the visors they quoted $75 each, new from mitsu is $45-55 each. For the tail lights they quoted $300, which new you can get on ebay for around $270.
Don't waste your time with them.

Some wreckers will try to fool you by marking up their prices because most people think they're much cheaper than the dealer they won't bother asking the latter for a quote. Don't fall for it!
