| you know what i love about going to a junk yard on a crappy day like today??? im the only fool in there! got a ton of pics from my visit i ended up picking up a dual electric fan and radiator support from an l99 car for 29 bucks and a blazer overhead console for $19 6 B body and 1 D body ( i love that this yard lines up all the same cars so you dont have to go searching) there was a wagon (91-93... leaning towards 93 imo) grey on grey the greenish road master 91-93 had nice cloth LIMITED seats whole set red 91/92 with a perfect set of lights interestingly there was a full untouched set of MANUAL door panels up there adriatic blue and for some damn reason all the cars had MINT white CLEAN fluid buckets! $19 a piece... i ran out of money | |

| Very cool! Nice score! Happen to see if they had any bonnies with red buckets? What about late 90's/early 00's black leather seats from GTI's or fancy Jettas? | |

They will. Roadie, OCC and Caprice seats all use the same rails. | |

| That is a Roadmaster sedan right? I thought I could see the front down the line of cars.
If there's no burn holes or anything like that I think I'd consider them, the original seats in my car are very nice but I feel like the driver's seat isn't super comfortable, and I much prefer these Limited seats and how they kind of hold you in place once you're in them... | |

| gotta head back up to that yard this week for some seat belts and other various items. I dont wanna say what yard until i grab a few things that I know ppl on here would snatch up (didnt list them) if anyone see anything on here they'd want and would pay for them I will grab it, - Matt Trakker wrote:

PM me i you wanna go up there I'll give you a hand removing if you want. i think seats go for 20 each (so $60 for the set) when i go back up there I'll look for seats and walk the whole yard. i was on a mission for a console and really was just up there doing a looky-loo, but when i saw the dual electrics i ran back to the car for tools, then I started losing my mind after seeing so many great cars. its a love/hate thing everytime i go to any yard. | |

| Hmm, that doesn't sound too bad. Let me look at mah schedulllle...
My issue would be my car not having power seats, I'd have to figure that one out...probably need the door switches and everything I suppose to make them usable in the car unless I could just bolt them to my current rails for the time being. I bet I could snag the cornering light harness from that RMS too lol | |

But they would bolt to the manual rails til you could sort it all out. | |
