Default Fiesta wreckers/cheap parts in Melbourne?

Gidday folks,
I was wondering if anyone in Melbourne knows of any good wrecking yards who may have any fiesta car/parts.

I need some front springs for my 2007 LX 2-door..its too low and I am considering of changing them.

Any and all advice will be gratefully appreciated. Cheers.

I'd try the Yellow Pages, and ring up as many as you can find.
My problem with these wreckers is that none of them know what a Fiesta is - they keep calling it a Festiva.

Try sending an enquiry to either fordautoparts.com.au (East Keilor), fordautosalvage.com.au (Clayton) or ftgautosalvage.com.au (Ferntree Gully).

FTG is a site sponsor so maybe discount? However their site is only showing late model sedans as wrecking at the moment.

There are few Fiestas at Deerpark wreckers. One is them is the latest model. Before you go there do some home work because these days wreckers are asking for too much.
