Default Online Junkyard (Car-Part.com) Should be stickied

I know that many know about this, but some do not. If I had used this when getting my engine wiring harness, i would have saved 200 bucks. I went to a junkyard and they had to order the harness from another junkyard. All i needed was the engine wifing harness, and they gave me the UNDERHOOD wiring harness.

http://car-part.com/

it is basically a database of all junkyards in North america. YOu do a search based on your vehicle and year, and you can find everything you need. Also you can find all those 2500 parts that many of us covet (rearend, springs etc)

Try it out.

Stickying it would be kind-of like letting them advertise here or making it look like DF is promoting them. I can't really do that so we won't be stickying it.

iv been using that site for along time, but i usually just google the website for my local junkyards wherever it may be and do a search on there because carpart.com brings up country wide and i dont know about you im not going to pay 600 bucks for a fender when i can get the same condition that i can inspect in person at a junkyard close to me.
