Junk Yard Spare Parts

Hello all,

Restoring a 6MT TL-S, just curious what you guys consider worth scavenging on junkyard TLs for preventative maintenance or spare parts?

I know the cup holder cover is definitely one. Anything else?

Anyone know the going rate on waffles? I need at least one.

I was unsuccessful in obtaining a cup holder in a junkyard.

I got one at a junk yard. I should have gotten the amp also, to replace the capacitors in it. Might go back to see if it’s still in the car.

Get a dashboard if it isn’t cracked. It could come in handy if you keep the car for any length of time!

I would consider, driver, and passenger, front seat cushion covers, if you stumble across a really nice set. They are not terribly difficult, to remove, and may come in handy, if you decide to keep the car, for an extended period. They take up little storage space, and there is always a market, if you decide not to use them Acura charges, like $600.00 each, for them!
