I know I'm just going to have to go and look.. but for the people who have been before, are there usually trucks with interior pieces? Or do those get removed pretty quick?

I want an escalade center console.. and any other pieces I might be able to get.

Just find it hard to believe I'll have a good chance at getting one.

*Thanks to NathanJax for keeping an immaculate interior, sorry for ******* it*

No..its easy...all the junkyards around here already have most of the center consoles out...theres a few GMC truck dismantlers...but my favorite is a place called Subway Truck Station...they are a wrecking yard for all new trucks..NBS and newer...they ALWAYS have nice interior in them...It shouldnt be an issue, Im sure its the same there in VA

I've got interior parts for my Ranger and my Denali multiple times and in perfect condition..from junkyards

+1 Thanks for the good info.. Yeah I make a couple trips from VA to Atlanta throughout the year so I'm sure if I do a little research I can hit up some major junkyards along the way.

Right now I found what I need on eBay for a good deal.. assuming I can pull off the win on the auction. If it falls through I'll definetly hit up the yards.. probably will go anyway to see if I can get some cool stuff or new ideas..

Where you stationed?

Man that interior is nice and cleeeeeaaaan.... O wait, it's MINE :)


Personally, I would check eBay for that stuff. In town, most of the stuff gets parted out and shipped out within a few days for insurance rebuilds and other stuff...

Are you going to put the Escalade wood grain through the whole truck? ...might look kinda funny with it just on the console

Hey BlizzardX23, where is the junk yard you are talking about? I need to find some interior stuff for my 06 Denali...all the local places by my house want an arm and a leg for anything. Was looking for the 3rd brake light at the salvage yard by my house, wanted $110 for it, Autozone sells it for $69...
