Yea there used to be a yard called absolute in i believe plainfield that they got rid of and put a warehouse. But even with them prices were kinda high granted still not dealership prices but not very reasonable either.

Middlesex. Damn I miss that place. Hours spent there on saturdays. The one in Montville too.

There are a few down south, it isn't like the good old days (the one that used to be by willowbrook mall kept many a car of mine running in the mid 90s) where you get a good selection and great prices.
The only one i know of further north is in Somerset. It isn't a huge place, maybe 150 cars tops, and they usually strip them of the good stuff (lights, trim, etc) before putting them out.
The couple of times i've called asking if they have an XYZ when looking for stuff, i've never been able to get a straight answer to know if its worth the trip.
So sadly you probably have to make the trip to PA, or Upstate NY for what you are after, and even they tend to run through the cars for good stuff to toss on ebay before letting you have at them.

Nope. Went through this a year or so ago. They have to pull it for you.
I was told by basically every yard I called that it's a liability issue.
Used https://www.car-part.com/ to find the yards and the parts inventory listed is pretty accurate. Managed to find a used nissan fuse panel that the dealer wanted $800 for, for $45.
