Have you ever shopped for a used car on Facebook and noticed some folks listing car parts and accessories? It turns out this is a pretty good way to make an extra buck. If you have a car that’s ready for the scrapyard, instead of having it towed whole for quick cash, consider disassembling it and selling individual parts.

According to GM Parts Direct, recent Google trends show a 416% increase in searches for “how much for car parts.” They also say that there are seven specific car parts you can sell from your old ride for extra cash:

1. Engine
2. Catalytic converter
3. High-quality Wheels
4. GPS system
5. Metal body parts
6. Battery
7. Lights

Engine: Engines can be worth several hundred to several thousand dollars, depending on mileage, condition, and demand. Popular or high-performance engines fetch premium prices. Obviously, buyers will expect the engine to be in good condition. The blocker for most folks here is obviously the labor it would take to drain and remove the engine. If you aren’t experienced in this area, getting help or having the buyer remove it are options. Otherwise, you can start smaller with the items below.

Catalytic converter: These contain precious metals like palladium and platinum and can be very valuable. Prices vary based on vehicle type and current metal market values, ranging from $50 to over $1000. Check local regulations before selling, as some states require handling by certified facilities.

High-quality wheels: Alloy wheels from reputable brands can sell for $100 to $500 per set, potentially more if they’re unique or in pristine condition. Including hubcaps and lug nuts can make the package more attractive.

GPS system: A built-in GPS could sell for $50 to $300, depending on the make, model, and features. Systems that are easy to update or compatible with popular aftermarket software are more desirable.

Metal body parts: Fenders, hoods, and doors in good condition can earn $50 to $200 each. Rare colors or parts for specific models can fetch higher prices. Ensure the paint is in good condition, as scratches, dents, and rust will lower the value. These panels are fairly easy to remove.

Battery: A functional battery could sell for $25 to $50. Even dead batteries can be recycled for a few dollars.

Lights: Headlights and taillights can sell for $20 to $50 each, especially newer models or those with unique designs. Cracked or foggy lights will be worth less.

Aside from the car parts listed above, people might be looking for any number of interior items. This might include center console covers, rearview mirrors, sun visors, or even seat assemblies. You can also make a post for general parts availability and encourage people to inquire.

GM Parts Direct also offered the following tips for selling car parts:

Research: Junkyard quotes can provide a baseline value for some parts, but only marketplaces like eBay and Craigslist can be great resources for assessing the value of specific parts based on your vehicle’s make, model, and year.

Be transparent: Be honest about the condition of the parts you’re trying to sell, and don’t try to hide any flaws to make a few extra dollars. Be accurate in your description, explaining any damage, missing components, and wear and tear. Buyers will appreciate transparency and be more likely to trust a seller who is honest about any issues.

Take good photos: When selling anything online, high-quality photos are essential. Photograph everything with multiple views and angles, and make sure the photos are clear and taken in good lighting during the day. You’ll attract a lot more buyers than blurry photos taken in a dimly lit garage.

List in the right places: Facebook Marketplace and Craiglist can help you list your car parts locally to find potential buyers in the area, but it’s a good idea to also cast a wider net. Search for online forums specifically for your car’s make and model. These communities often have sections for buying and selling used parts to reach a more niche audience looking for something specific.
