Default salvage yards/pick a parts yard near Detroit?

Anybody know where I can find these locations that might have C5 parts? I want to find another fuel sending unit for my 2001, but don't want to spend the $400 plus to get one!

Thanks!

C5 parts may be hard to come by, but one of the best yards around is Parts Galore. They have two locations (one on 8 Mile). Google them for the exact location. They are open 7 days a week 8-8.

You can also ask Vette to Vette parts on here. He is a sponsor and I have received some good prices from him before.

Google Michigan Corvette Recyclers in Riga, Mi (near Toledo if I remember correctly).

Are you having an issue with a fuel level sending unit?
GM Makes a service kit (float with sweep electronics) for the fuel level sender since they have so many issues with them . Last time I got one they were $135 if my memory serves me.

Hi Phil, hi Ken, and yes, I am. I'm getting another sending unit from Vette2Vette for the same price, however. But I'm glad you guys chimed in!
