faith's junkyard service
well a few years back I used to operate a junkyard service and am thinkin of starting it up again
basically you tell me what you want, ill pull it and ship it to you
pretty reasonable rates, and since i know my way around hyundais, i know what im lookin for
also means i know what to look for in terms of damage and stuff like that, removing parts without snapping off important pieces
sold MANY transmissions/engines throughout the years and always packed them up rather nicely
heres a link to the old thread
for some rough pricing, right now your lookin at approx 300ish for a trans, 100ish for non captive spindles and it appears to be roughly 80 for a 1.8 cam
shipping is ALWAYS whatever they charge me, unless i have to buy some sorta special packaging or something
i typically will head out on a weekend or so to look for parts and will post up ahead of time if i plan on goin
of course ill have to scout out which yards i can hit up once i move(figure 2 weeks) so dont hold me to the pricing quite yet, if i can find a better yard to shop from, ill pass the pricing down to you guys
MOST yards offer a 30 day warranty if not longer, if there is a warranty i do pass it down to you, BUT the part will have to be returned to me before i can warranty it
blah blah blah legal babble over with buy some sh*t already

Nice one mang. It's always good to have some international USDM deluxe hookups handy.
I'd do the same but junkyards are unbelievably expensive here compared to the US. Frequently more expensive than US dealer price...

If you let me know what a 2003-2005 Accent GT cluster (white face, indiglo, tach) and/or a pair of headlights for the same year range Accent with good clear lenses would go for I would be interested in either.
