........................ ...........................WHO ARE WE
...................We are a 100.00% independent company, independent of VW.
........We're Recycled Inc. We sell PARTS for all Volkswagen's. We are a brick and mortar parts store warehouse and salvage yard in Auburn Hills, Michigan, selling new, used, and rebuilt parts for Volkswagen's. We have all sorts of parts for Volkswagen. Just let us know if there is something you are looking for. We have been in business since before you were born (38 years). We have 15,000 sq. ft. warehouse 25 feet tall full of new and used stuff. And we're a real business with lights, telephones and friendly, knowledgeable staff selling real parts we have on the shelf. We're not some guy with a hotmail account working out of his parents' basement drop-shipping parts he doesn't even have. We sell items from 1960-2010, with emphasis on "daily driver" parts. We sell parts that make your cars go. We don't specialize in restoration or racing parts, so ordinary items are important to us.
........We have a real building with real store hours, if you have a problem and it can't be resolved you can come and see us.
........We are located at .....2500 Commercial Drive, Auburn Hills, Michigan 48326..... Located on Interstate I-75 exactly at the 80 mile marker. 80 miles north of the Ohio line right on the freeway. The side of our building is a 20' x 120' mural of Parts of Volkswagen's.
