Question good junk yard in MA?

Hi,
I'm trying to find a tail light for my 1990 Legacy sedan. I think some stupid snow plow backed into it a few weeks ago in my apartment's parking lot...of course they won't admit anything.

Do any of you know of a good junk yard in the vicinity of Arlington or Bedford, MA? If not , anything in eastern MA in general?

I might just order a new one from Lisa at Troncalli, but I'd rather find something much cheaper.

Thanks!!!

ABC in Leominster is pretty large, I haven't checked their Subaru selection but they always had Corrado parts when I was looking, and that was a pretty rare car. HTH

There is in fact a junk yard in Billerica Named Hollands. If you go Rt3 North to the Trebble Cove RD exit. At the bottom turn left and go for about 1/4 mile and you will see it on the left. If you want, or need help, just let me know.

Come to think of it there is a junk yard right in Lexington. I believe it is on the same road as that driving range/pitch and putt thing, but who knows. Thats maybe something you might want to check out.

I just called the places you guys mentioned and a couple of others. No one seems to have a Subaru Legacy.

I guess I'll just buy the new one.

Thanks for your help guys!

The one over in Lexington is Carolls. Don't go there. They are nasty people. Go to Hollands. Much better.

If time isn't an issue, look on the web.

I found this place in Colorado(WaC might actually have the number), they only deal with Subaru's. New and used parts. I got lateral links that the dealer wanted over $150 for $30 shipped. I believe Wayne bought rear disc brake hubs from them.

It's called Superu or something like that.

I just filled out the parts request form Super-Rupair. I don't know if that's the place you are talking about.

Although it looked a little bit questionable when my only choices for Engine Type were:
Carbonated
Turbo
SPFI

Since my engine is not a turbo, and it's not made by Perrier, I just chose SPFI. I guess it doesn't matter if I just need a tail light.

heh. That's a rather amusing word mixup if I ever saw one. carbonated?!?

SPFI is sort of correct, I think. "FI" means fuel injection, I bet. But I suspect "SP" means single-point (one big injector in the intake manifold), and the newer Subaru engines are "MP" - multi-point (one injector per cylinder).

Doesn't matter, I think.

Yup,

That's the place. They'll send you an email with a phone number. You call them up and talk to the guy. They may even give you a quote. They actually charged me less that what they quoted me.

Well, I placed an order with Super Rupair. They seemed pretty nice when I called them and they didn't ask me if my engine was "carbonated" or not, so that's a good sign. The price was pretty decent too.

I should get the part by monday, so we'll see how good these guys are.
