What i should look for from a part out

[cfox28]

Hey guys,

First off i didn't know where this thread belonged.

There is a 2000 accord coupe 4cycl (silver) being parted out near me,

and i'm asking maybe some suggestions on what could be good to pick up

*also if anyone has parts that would be easy for me to check out, and or ship (from Columbus Ohio)
I could perhaps do that for someone.

the front end is wrecked, and I think anything performance related i would stray
away from since i don't know the person at all

I think I was going to make an offer on the black interior and some of the bezels

make an offer on the black interior for me too.. i got 500 shipped for everything.

oh and see if he has the "non-folding" driver side mirror.. i need that badly. ill PM you my number.. so you can tell me how much hes asking for it. and i need a clock.

but as far as suggestions.. the main relay from up under the dash on the driver side. the mutli-plex (both driver and passenger side) .. (<-- i need the driver side one). umm.. anything thats starting to look worn out in your car that be swapped out.. like clean your car real nice.. and then look for what could be cleaner/replaced.

I would not recommend getting the multi-plex. If I'm not mistaken they are year/trim specific.

If you decide not to take the interior, let me know.

As for what you should take from it, just look around inside and outside your car, look for damaged or broken parts, grab what you need from the donor car if the colors work out.

98-00 and 01-02.. is the only difference i know of... maybe Nikita wants to chime in.. i know he knows..

Climate control knobs. And if it has a leather automatic transmission shift knob take it :]

well balls! i guess the interior of the car was cloth. from the pictures it looked like leather, but i think it was just because of the quality, and the tinted windows

so because there isn't the full leather interior I won't drive an hour away.
here's the link for his craigslist:

... idk.. maybe he'd ship items...

It doesn't matter if it's year trim specific I would get the multiplex anyways from a part-out - for future people wondering.

As far as fitment, there are various categories, not just the brackets of year/trim. Basically, each multiplexor I get I cross-reference and confirm with Honda, and I give the customer the part number so that they can do the same before buying - this way there is no issues. There are very specific different criteria for fitment between trim, year, and engine (4cyl/V6).

Sucks that it fell through because the interior was different.

damn i wish he was in my state. i'd buy all the windows just for the tint.

and he only wants 800.. id buy the whole car.

im parting out mines.... moving onto a impreza wagon... hopefully in 2-4 years get a sti swap with a sti ra tranny. even though i just spend about 2,600 fixing the accord and only has 169XXX miles and 80k of it was mostly highway miles =/ selling whole car for 1200 w/ a slipping tranny
