If you are looking to save a few bucks by buying discount auto parts, there are a lot of resources out there for you. The following article will detail the best method for achieving the best price for your needs.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    A pick apart is a great place to pick up discount auto parts. This is because you have to do most of the work. Typically, you bring your own tools, browse the car lot for a car with the right part, remove it yourself and pay for it. So, it is a used part to begin with and you have to go get it so you usually can pick these discount auto parts up for a fraction of what you would pay to the auto manufacturer.

  2. Step 2

    Auto Dismantlers are another great place to get discount auto parts. Like the pick apart, there is a huge lot full of dead cars. The difference is that the auto dismantler goes and removes the part for you so that they don’t have to worry about the liability of you being on the lot. Since they are used and often still need rebuilt, you can easily get discount auto parts from here.

  3. Step 3

    Most people don’t realize this, but the aftermarket parts you get from the local parts store are usually discount auto parts. This is because they are primarily after market parts made by companies other than the vehicle manufacturer. Even though they seem expensive, you are getting a huge savings in comparison the what the dealership will offer you.

  4. Step 4

    Wholesalers are another great place to get discount auto parts. Check for local wholesalers in your phone book. You can also find them online. Wholesalers offer much cheaper parts because they are able to buy in bulk and then distribute direct to the customer, cutting the parts store out of the middle.

  5. Step 5

    You can also go online to get discount auto parts. The internet has a plethora of discount auto parts stores who are more than willing to ship you anything you need at a fraction of the conventional cost.
