Scrap yards...
« on: 21 February 2010, 13:54:59 »

After quite a few bits for 3 different omegas (all pre) and wondering if anyone knows anywhere they are scrap yards that have a lot of omega in them.. (around here theres a few french scrappies so that kind of thing)

Or if anyone knows where i could find cheap items;
1 x Pair of Projectors
1 x Middle Brake Light (Saloon)
1 x Electric mirror button with led for heated mirrors
2 x Spare tyres (or atleast rims)
1 x Plastic Grill
1 x Air Con Rad
1 x Blind Motor
2 x Auto Dip Mirror
1 x Rear right estate light cluster
1 x Estate rear bumper plastic
1 x Silver bit on saloon bumper (just 2 corners)
1 x Aircon Pump

So many bits for 3 omegas
Cheers steve.

Maybe cockney rhyming slang for MILTON KEYNES.
I dunno, just a guess.

Its basically a field full of all kinds of cars, couple of weeks ago there was pre-facelift reflection and facelift 2.2 taxi in there.

Wheels are removed, and stacked elseware, so they are bottomed out, take wellies as its very muddy and ground has oils all over the place.

Take your own tools, remove the parts yourself, pay on exit at the office.  :y

Got a few near me, a couple you can walk in help your self pay and leave, the other one you have to check in at the office sign in (but not out) and a big sign by the gate " No tool box and no bags" in English and Polish.
