I got my windows in under a week, and it sure beats roaming the junkyard for hours looking for your glass.

I was just looking up instructions for installing it and read your post and now am thinking I will also just pay someone else to install it. Thanks for the great idea. It will save me a lot of hassle and probably some broken glass.

It's too much of a liability for us to allow people to wander and remove things on their own. Not only could they hurt themselves but they could also damage parts while removing them if they didn't know how to do it properly. All in all, the price of a used part is usually quite a bit less expensive than a new one. We have a junkyard, and as Stephanie suggested, the parts are removed for you.

While i have yet to go pick parts in a junkyard, I do like to buy replacement car parts and relace them myself (if it is someething i can do). I will definitely be looking into a junkyard visit in the future. RC Interesting post.

But it was a lazy weekend afternoon and I didn't have anything else better to do. It was actually an interesting field trip for me - a place I'd bring my kid if I had one. I think it's worth it if you're scrapping for parts to an older vehicle. Many older vehicles have hubcaps that frequently pop off - junk yards are nice places to replace them for cheap! If I drove a new Ferrari or a car like that I probably wouldn't be scouring the junk heaps for parts. Ben,

Overall I guess my question is: was it worth it? Granted it would be more expensive to take it to a shop to get it replaced - but it's also really convenient.
