Salvage Yard / Junk Yards - List of yards with parts
I'm looking for a passenger side rear wheel knuckle, mine has bent. It's the first time I've gone looking for C32's in a junk yard and it's not easy to find anything!
Does anyone have any recommendations? I'm sure others would like to have a simple list to consult when looking for odd ball parts.
I thought for sure someone would have created a list like this already, but my searches yielded nothing!

Shows that from 01-05 c240, c320 and c32 have same rear right knuckle.. third row down on the description.. hope this helps since it might be alot easier to find the c240 and c320 in a junkyard rather than the c32..

Something I do is take note of people / companies selling random c32 parts on ebay and when I need something, I go to them. There's one in Maryland that seems to routinely get w203 stuff. It's a pain in the ***, but so is calling junk yards.

Thanks I'm going to definitely look at that. I'll make sure it's the same piece, but this could make things a lot easier!
It would still be nice to have a list of decent places that aren't huge rip offs and those that often have a decent selection. Whenever a person is in a tight spot with a car down, it's nice to be able to find a replacement part quickly, rather than spending a week or two searching out the part and/or buying it new because the down time is too expensive. I was hoping to just create a mini list!
