Used car parts can also be sold on the Internet to big companies that, in turn, sell car parts to the public via the Internet. The price can range from $0.40 to $400 depending on the part that is to be sold. Used car parts can also be sold in auctions if the car is a vintage or a classic. Auction prices are much higher compared to prices in the normal market and the seller can expect a good return for any vintage part that he sells.

A recent Google search returned more than nine million visits from the term «Japanese car parts.» If you know the specific part you are looking for, try searching under the name or part number in quotation marks.

A great alternative is the junkyard. Often when a car is totaled and sent to the junkyard, the spare tire is intact. Many have never even been used. So how do you find a great match there?

In fact, if one observes properly one will remember that in vintage cars, car fender covers were an integral part of the car’s anatomy. They did not just cover the fender of the car but also added a touch of grace and glamour to the car.

I just want to caution you. Please do not go to your dealer for parts. Obviously, you want to go there to get your basic maintenance taken care of and that should be just fine. But for more serious servicing you should stay as far away from your dealer as humanly possible. At least as far as your TDI car parts are concerned. Many dealers actually mark up their prices by as much as 300%, and will let you pay the price without batting an eye.

Also, you can contact a junk yard, as to what car part you have so they can pick it up on your home. In some cases, the junk owner will even pay you for whatever useful things you would give him. They will inspect the parts first to make sure they do something about it in order to be resold. However, if the parts are just piece of crap, then the junk yard will be responsible in disposing them.
