Cheap DIY fixes with Used Auto Parts – Part 3 – Replacement Headlight Bulbs
Saving money wherever you can is the only way to free up money in tight budgets. To save money on car repairs, try doing the work yourself. There are many quick, cheap and easy repairs you can do yourself with very few tools and a basic set of instructions. One of these quick fixes is replacing your own turning signal or headlight bulbs.
Most cars have three bulbs per corner: one is the headlight and the other two are front and side turning signal lamps. Dealers, the priciest resource for making simple repairs, charges about $12 per bulb. Not only is there a huge markup on bulbs, they charge about $25 per corner. You can purchase your own bulbs at an auto parts store for about $9 each, but even at this price it’s still ridiculously high.
NYC Auto Salvage and Glass is New York’s premier provider of cheap used auto parts, including headlight and turning signal bulbs that are much cheaper than buying new. Bulbs are used but in great condition and work just as well as new bulbs. To learn about replacing bulbs, do a quick YouTube search for your vehicle’s make along with “changing headlight bulbs”.

Cheap DIY fixes with Used Auto Parts – Part 2 – Battery Replacement
Owning a car is expensive. Car payments, gas, insurance and parking add up. Compound those costs with the price of making repairs and regular maintenance appointments and you have the perfect recipe for a stress headache. Logic tells us that mechanic shops make money or they wouldn’t be in business. By charging high rates for labor and materials, shop owners line their wallets. Cutting corners where it’s reasonable is the best way to save money, and making DIY repairs using cheap used auto parts is a huge relief for those on a tight budget.
A single wiper blade costs about $25 from a dealer or mechanic to replace. If you buy new wiper blades from a parts store you can find them for about $7. Why pay so much for a thin strip of rubber? That’s ridiculous! NYC Auto Salvage and Glass has a variety of wiper blade types that are just as good as new or lightly used for just cents on the dollar, and we’ll even tell you how to install them yourself.
Before replacing the wiper blades, be sure they aren’t failing to perform due to being dirty. A kitchen scratch pad and a little elbow grease is all you need to clean them up. If that doesn’t work, then you probably do need to replace them. To remove, just pinch the rubber on the end of the wiper and slide it off. If it’s resistant, use a flat head screw driver to help pry it off. Toss it in the garbage and slide the new rubber blades back on the wiper blade brackets. It only takes a couple minutes and is so easy it’ll blow your mind.

Cheap DIY fixes with Used Auto Parts – Part 1 – Battery Replacement
Everyone who owns a car must eventually face the reality of making repairs. The cost of repairs depends upon the purchase price of parts and the cost of labor. Money doesn’t grow on trees, and repairs add up fast. One of the best ways to save money on repairs is to do them yourself. A quick YouTube tutorial, a little time and effort and a few cheap used auto parts is all you need to make the repairs yourself and reduce your overall costs.
A used battery costs so much less than the $70-$100 that dealers and parts stores charge for new batteries. At NYC Auto Salvage and Glass we carry a wide selection of batteries and can certainly help you find what you need at deep discounts. Parts are high quality and in working order so you know your used battery will hold a charge and keep your car operable.
To replace your car battery, disconnect the negative cable from the negative battery post first. This post will be marked with a “-“ sign. Next, disconnect the positive cable marked with a “+” sign. If your battery has a security bracket holding it in place, disconnect it. Lift the battery off of the plate and set it aside. Using an old, stiff bristled tooth brush scrub the connectors on the ends of the cables clean with a solution of baking soda and water. Baking soda is a base substance while battery contents are acidic. The chemical reaction will clean any corrosion from the connectors and keep the electrical current flowing without interruption. Don’t forget to rinse.
Place the new used battery on the support plate and reconnect the support bracket, if you have one. Connect the positive cable first, repeated by the negative cable. Make sure the cables do not slide from side to side and are securely in place. Start your car. Voila!

You know what’s a pain in the neck? Trying to order replacement auto parts online.
