If you can go to the Kilcock scrap yard. I rang them last week and by the time I had arrived they had the part taken off the car for me

Partfinder maybe?

To be honest I find actually going to scrap yards a lot easier. A lot of scrap yards aren't online as they would have a fairly high turn over of cars and it's a lot of work to catalogue car parts and then discover they aren't usable.

I was looking for a CAT for my 2000 focus last week. You'd think they'd be easy to get considering the amount of fords on the road. I must have rang every scrap yard and none of them had one.

Luckily Kilcock had a focus that had just been brought in :cool:

I find ebay.co.uk great.

Just enter "breaking" and the car name into ebay.co.uk search box and message the seller to see if he still has it as the seller is obviously not going to list every part in the car they are breaking.

Ive bought a good few items this way and they are always cheaper than here and always come with a no quibble warranty (usually 3 months) and give full VAT receipts etc, but shipping may be a bit expensive if its too big. Medium weight items with parcel motel (but has size limitations), or if its heavy (engine etc) use TPN (the pallet network) or similar

Thanks Gary I did check Samora but it's fairly expensive for the parts I'm looking for, the Bumper alone is €280

Just ordered Wing+Liner and headlamp for €120 from Discount Spare Parts so now I just need the bumper panic over!

I know yeah I was shocked myself I've used samora before and it was really cheap still it wasn't as bad as the opel price of €390 :eek: I sourced one from some fella in Meath which he will deliver all in @€;115 so it's not too bad. Thanks for the help lads
