Can't Find Parts...

conductor · 11-30-2007, 01:32 AM

I just bought a 1989 Ford Probe GT which is in great shape but with a couple of minor issues...

I need a right side door handle which got broken in the commission of a break-in while in the possession of the previous owner thereby the passenger side door cannot be opened from the outside.

Also I'm looking for a right side door mirror hood which is also broken. I don't actually need the mirror itself as it works fine electrically, although I'm not sure if it's possible to just change the hood or if I'll need to buy the whole assembly...??

I've been searching the internet extensively for these two items, unfortunately with no success.

I live in a rural area and don't have immediate personal access to any substantial auto recycling depots. It appears that none of the recyclers in the city nearest to me inventories such items for online access.

If anyone here knows where I might find these two items online I would be most appreciative if you could let me know...

TIA
Cheers

EBay usually has comes up with some parts; i.e. mirrors. I've found we G1 people are salvage yard bums.

I was at a wreckers in BRantford ontario called A-1 looking for parts for my 89 gl and a dude had just brought in his 89 gt it has all the stuff you are looking for. Its probably to far away to matter but there are parts out there.
