5th Gen. Honda coveted parts to look for at Junk Yard

[Tino58]

I hear my local yard just got in several 5th Gen Honda Civics and Accords. Heading there soon to see what I can get cheap for my car! If I can find some parts that i can re-sell, I will invest and snag them as I am a long time eBay seller. What should I look for?

mud flaps can sell for around $100 a set, a sunroof visor can sell for around $60, cargo covers for 92-95 and 96-00 are always in demand, it's mainly accesories you should look for. also, you could look for ANY integras rear brake set up and you could sell those for profits, there's always civics that want to do the rear disc conversion.

Thanks Mike. I read your post after getting back from the yard. I believe I did see some of those items you mentioned. Will go there again in a week or two. That gives them time to get in more cars and scrap out the ones I checked already.

OEM Spoiler, Ex/Si 5spd clusters, armrest (especially in black) optional audio console (they were a US option also)

Since we're on the topic of coveted parts, can anyone think of some 6 gen parts of value?

Mainly the same as the 5th gen.
Only think I can think of extra would be 99-00 coupe tails and maybe 99-00 Si seats.

actually no, i bought my oem mud flap from honda dealer for $50

Anyone know how easily those si/ex clusters sell? because here they would all be in km/h so that may make them worth less? or maybe even more?

I take it the clusters are the Canadian counterpart of US clusters, meaning the only difference is the unit of measurement? I can't see them selling for anymore than a cluster with MPH.

1995 civic loock tabs are widely needed
