Going to england.. parts i should get from the jazz?

Going for my summer break in a couple months. I was thinking while i was there i could dig around at a junkyard and grab some parts!

Anyone got any suggestions for what would be worth grabbing?

I cant really take things that are super large, so something like front end conversion parts would be out of the question

A blue dot Jazz would look good on mine.

See if you can find the vent that goes in the top glove box in the GE, that turns it into a chilled compartment. One of the members here did a nice write up on it. Installation is pretty simple. Only problem, the vent isn't available in the US.

for resale value the rear disc brakes are the ticket. we got mine from thailand but england just as good. some parts are bulky but not too much, check shipping cost tho as they heavy for heir size.
have a good time.

you'll need a big suitcase - and prepare for expensive airline charge.

Im going in november for 2 weeks.

i totally want to do the rear disc conversion, what would i need to get there that is not available/difficult here?

I'm guessing the mount for the caliper and.... what else? mount for the disc? anyone know part numbers?

requests?
