    Does anyone know of a WRX sitting in a junkyard anywhere? I have a few random parts that I need to pull off of there, like glove box latch, cup holder, the little hook that the floormats are held in place with, etc...

    haha why didnt any of you just PM me if you're looking for WRXs in junkyards . . .

    There's one at a junkyard about a mile and a half away from Tech. Its an 03 sedan with a completely burnt out engine bay (pretty much everything forward of the firewall is toast).

    New Dixie Used Auto Parts:
    947 Donald Lee Hollowell Pkwy

    They werent necessarily the nicest folks plus they were trying to rip me off on a harness but you might be able to find some stuff.

    do you have anymore contacts that i could call? i need the sensors, so the burnt out engine bay doesn't help me much.

    thanks bobby!

    Are you coming to Dallas on Friday night?

    I can bring them with me, do you just need one or do you need all of them.

    I'm not going to be able to make it to Dallas tomorrow night. I'll be out of town.

    I'll send you a pm with my cell number and work out a time to meet.

    I think i just need both sensors, but I need to talk to Scott at SoG first just to make sure.

    Thanks man!

    DOODS! Found 2 and 1/2 salvaged WRXs up in Cumming. One is a silver 04 that they just got in. Call these guys up and see if they still have what you need. Got all the random fasteners and stuff that I was missing earlier today.

    Sorry... One silver, 1.5 sedona reds. The reds were pretty trashed bodywise, but I think the silver still had that door. Might want to call first, though.

    Pretty sure it was an '04. Call 'em anyway. If we generate enough interest they might continue buying WRXs. The sign up front said they specialize in 5 year old or newer Hondas and Toyotas (i.e. Japanese vehicles.)

    did you check that the Tallant Bros still had any parts? They said they didnt have any when I talked with them a couple months ago.

    The WRX at the junkyard I mentioned is pretty stripped now (tranny, ecu, wiring, etc) but they may still have suspension components.

    I just know that they didnt have the wiring harnesses I needed and it sounded like they didnt even have the car there anymore.

    I guess they do now.:hs:
