Junk yards
#5
Not all junk yards are the same. I have been to some where they look up the parts value on the computer and sell you it disappointingly higher than you were expecting, and I have been to some where the owner is laid back and bargains with you, especially if you buy more than one part.
Also, some junkyards have hardly any Hondas and some junk yards are plethoras of junked Hondas. Look the closest ones up on the internet and give them a call. Find out ahead of time if they sound promising or not.

Junk yards rock! Some of them have no idea what they have, or how rare it is. Got the SI speaker pods for my 90 hatch for $5. =) Always try to talk them down. Never act like what they have is exactly what you expected. always find something ' wrong ' with it. make a big deal out of it. They will lower the price to get it out the door.

I love going to my pick a part down the street. I traded some chipping cobra rims for stock eclipse gst rims cuz i said they were harder to find. HAHA yea right. they were ugly the gst rims were cleaaann. you never know what you will find
also this one junk yard i went to with a friend the guy didnt care about interior pieces he just let me have them. he said they weren't worth enough.
sometimes i find random crap inside the cars and just take it most places dont care long as it isnt a car part. I found a gameboy once. haha

Junk yards ROCK especially once you start to get to know the guys who run em, the one in town where i live, "Pinedale auto wreckers" is great they have a decent amount of Honda's and the guy knows me well enough to give me some good deals.
