Bone yard trip for me tomorrow.

I am making a pilgrimage to the bone yard tomorrow. I have a good friend that is the inventory guy and lets me walk through the yard. This is no pull-a-part. This is 1000's of cars. Going to look for 9th Gens and Tc's. Anything else I should look for?

Question, the middle dash under the radio, to remove it just pop off the air controls, remove a screw and the rest just pop's off?

Rotors with low mileage that can be cut, maybe a steel wheel to replace the donut. A kinda big thing that is easy to replace is the wiper stalk from an LE. It has the variable timing wipers, it is just plug and play. Might want to pull some fog lights (fuse and relay and light stalk too) but only if you are pre wired for them. Also, grab the MAG clutch relays or horn relays. Tensioners are known to go bad, but you would probably not want to get a used tensioner. The Tc has a somewhat padded center arm rest that fits the rolla, and makes it easier on your elbow. Depending how long you are keeping your car, might want to look at a cat too.

To answer your question, yes.

Rear disc brakes from a Matrix Xrs 03-08. You will want everything from the hubs out plus the rear brake lines and parking brake cables. Corolla LE Optitron gauges (05-08), looks better than the CE gauges and don’t forget to get the LE rheostat too (07-08) or you wont be able to dim the dash lights. Remember that mileage stays with the gauges so find one that is close in mileage to yours. For Scion’s, try to find the auto dimming mirror with Homelink (garage door opener). These mirrors are great at night and have led map lights that can change color.
