Do car junk yards sell new and reliable auto parts?

I want to go to a junk yard or a pick up car place for auto parts since the ones I am looking for are not sold at the stores, or I can go to a dealership but their auto parts are so much more expensive. Yet, I'm concerned, because don't junk yard places sell used parts? Are they reliable? Do they help you install parts and such as well, and if so, how much is their service? thanks! I need all the information I can get.

1. well all depends what your looking for nothing is better then new parts not at a dealer but auto parts.email me and let me know what your looking for.some places you have to take off your self after spending so much time trying to find the car and parts your looking for.here they have a 25.00 min for any part.
2. I dont think they're job is to help/aid in installing. A junk yard is just what the title says "junk yard" everything is used, only some parts are in good condition & depending on the part they might give you a warranty,
3. Why do you think it's called a junkyard, moron!
4. Just go to a shop and show them the that your headlight thing broke and have them fix it. they will get the part probably from the dealer unless you ask for 1 from a junk yard and will install it for you. the labor wont be much. and a part like the 1 you are looking for will be fine from a junk yard but they probably wont install it for you. a good shop might even put it in for you for free. but if they do dont forget to tip em
5. well truth is they been in Business a long time used parts for half of what one can buy a new one for is why they there some parts just as good as what you could buy other maybe not so much... and depending on the part most people can do most anything you can find how to's by typing like... how to replace name of part year of car name of car like how to replace bumper 1999 ford f150 wil find it and some times if you add video you might even find that as well and a few auto parts stores also have how to info really knowing what is bad the hard part replacing most of the time easy... tell us what your wanting could get you answers.. like how do i replace on a could be something anyone could do.. your question not enough info of what your wanting to know but yes salvage yards are great money savers no most do not help you replace but you might ask you never know might be somene willing to make some spare money
