Ok, this is going to be a real newbie question, but I thought I should ask it so that I don't end up doing something stupid next week lol.
I popped upto my local scrappy this evening to see if I could find the place. I did, but it had closed. So I'm going to pop in there sometime next week on the way back from college just to have a root around and see if I could find anything Micra related.....
Anyway, being pretty new to this (never been to a scrappy before) is there anything in particular I need to do, or look out for?
For example, can I just park up outside, walk in and have a rummage around the place?
If I find something I like, can I just remove it myself? or would I have to get someone to do it for me?
Would I need to let anyone know before I remove something, or do I just take out what I want & pay for it?
Also, do most places offer some kind of guarantee in case the part doesn't work, fit, etc? (I know different scrappys probably have different policies on this).
Anywhooo, feel free to answer as many or as little of those questions as you all like. I know y'all like us newbies to do a search (which I always do, I promise! :shy: ) But I couldn't find anything quite this basic on here relating to scrap yards.
Any advice would be great. I just don't want to go climbing around on cars looking for stuff without knowing what I'm doing!
