Any one know of a Mazda salvage yard near seatac?
I've been trying to find parts for my 7 but all the junkyards I've found near my house(50 miles out), either don't have any 7's or the parts I'm looking for are either gone or not compatible.
Anyone able to help? I'm willing to go farther out, but I'm unemployed and I cant afford to throw my gas away.
And yes I know I shouldn't spend my money when I don't have income. and I'm not. I just want to know where I can find parts when I do get an income

Coveys in Marysville, But they are a bit spendy, and Tim is a bit on edge most of the time. But he's correct, FC's are getting harder to find, so he adjusts his prices accordingly.

Rapid rotary in Kent. That is if he is still there. Last time I was there was about a year ago. He had 10 plus FC's there last I saw. Stockpile of parts as well.
Also, ebay has a crap ton of parts. Sometimes expensive, sometimes cheap. Just depends on the sell. One guy could be asking $200 for something someone else is selling for $20. Exact same item, funny.

You need to get his more current contact info then. He works out of a wrecking yard now, or at least as of last fall. I had his card but I can't remember where I put it.

dont go to coveys in marysville. they are way over priced, treat customers like idiots and talk down to them. and they wont honor their warranties. I had gotten a transmission that was way overpriced from them a while back for my old turbo probe, since they were the only ones around with one and the thing was trash, tried to get a replacement and they told me i was out of luck, even though it was three days since i had purchased it. Check out the pick n pulls and northwest auto recycling, or just call all local junkyards to see if they have one in the yard.

He is an honest guy, won't rip you off.
My buddy went there to buy a window regulator and was told a price on the phone.
When he got there he took $5 bucks off because the price went down on eBay. Cut himself 5 bucks out of the deal just to charge my buddy a reasonable price.
I give him thumbs up.
