Default Chicago area junk/salvage yard

I need a bolt, a single bolt, for my rear seat belt. Anybody know of a Chicago area junk yard or salvage yard where I might find one? Prefer western suburbs, if possible.

Thanks!

if it is for a 993, you are probably SOL...



BUT we like going to the pick 'n pull in Aurora...

If it's for your 993, why don't you just call a dealer (any dealer) and tell them what you're looking for. In a matter of seconds they'll know the part number, and if it's just a bolt, it will only be a few dollars.

...seatbelt bolts are very specialized.. and very expensive along with it unfortunatley.... although -- very expensive might be $10... I dunno... never had to buy one myself.. but have been told they are specially made with a very strong metal composite for strength... much stronger than your typical bolts... for obvious reasons I'm sure!!!

What is the pick 'n pull?

Yes, it's for my 993 and I've heard the same thing about them being specialty wrt the strength. The bolts for my DAS rollbar are similar.

well.. don't bother with the place in Aurora.. I can promise they have no 993s there.. just other foreign stuff you can walk around and take what you need...

which bolt do you need anyway if you already have the DAS Bar installed, you can't use the rear seat belts???

Sorry, didn't mean to confuse you. When I take the roll bar back out, I put the seat belts back in. In the process, I've lost one of the bolts.
