I use www.car-part.com on a weekly basis.
I certainly have considered that. I've just been trying to decide if the $800 difference between a used installed and a rebuilt installed is worth taking the chance.

car-part is a fantastic resource isn't it? It has saved me a bundle over the years having rebuilt a number of totaled cars.
