Default Pick your part salvage yards in Detroit area?

I'm looking for a pick your part salvage yard in the Detroi area. I actually posted a link to a newspaper article about one last year, but the article is no longer available. Does anyone know about this, or any other pick your part, salvage yard in the Detroit area? I am specifically looking for a yard that will have Audi's for a project I am working on.

Thanks for the help.

Ken,
It's not too far from your work. They are on Telegraph just north of 8-mile. Just north of the Toyota dealer on the east side of Tele. Jason said that he's not sure if they will have many audi's in there, but you can always ask if they do.

Matt,
Thanks for the info,

By the way, I ordered a port injection manifolf and associated fuel lines for the Vette. I also ordered a wideband O2 sensor/controller. The fuel injection should be working sometime around Thanksgiving. That will give me plenty of time to get it tuned for the next track day.

In the Deeetroit tradition some view the whole area as a place for available parts

There is one on 8 mile and Hoover right next to the Colliseum. Pick your parts and then go next door for a lapdance!

Not sure if it's still there, but I used to go to a place on the north side of Metro Parkway between Mound and Van **** (on the service drive). This was work related - needed to chase down VW parts, and they had a great selection of early build New Beetles at the time. Name escapes me, though. Good luck.
