Junkyards In S.E. Michigan?

Does anyone know of any 'good' junkyards (lotsa thirdgen stuffs) near the metro-Detroit Area?

The only one I go to is a place called Westgate. It's a junkyard in westland near the intersection of Cherry Hill and Newburg (sp?). The number of thirdgens in the local junkyards seems to be dwindling, unfortunately.

The ones I go to the most are Absolute Auto Parts in Waterford, and Coast to Coast in South Lyon. I was just there a couple weeks ago and robbed the wonderbars off the cars there

Is there anything in particular you're looking for? If you need a LOT of stuff, you might be better buying a whole car for parts at Charity Motors, Mother Wattles, or an insurance auction.

I've heard good things about this auction in particular:

You have the benefit of (usually) seeing pics of the cars before you go there..
