If you intend to used the rear lights for Lucky don't forget the taking the wire harnesses (the LED brake lights have a different connector), upper garnish pieces (fit and finish) AND the luggage compartment junction box, which is located on the drivers right next to amp and gps. The last item is necessary to prevent the MIL from showing up on your instrument panel.

If you are superstitious then think of this...the car parts survived, the driver didn't, so they are the lucky ones I guess. Very sad. I would also agree that the owner had to be a CL member. Had to be. Definitely get all the harnesses and the luggage comp junction box. My little amber light shines so bright at night with mine! Not worth the extra $600 to me.
I would get any ECU's you can and resell-power seats, heated seat module, get the stereo and speakers too. Great for resale. Also the gear shift ****, steering wheel and nav door/nav system.

Thanks for the advice on the wiring I think I got it all. The yard is a u pull it, so if you are out of town I don't know if you could find a craigslist mechanic. If you need something easy to pull I will try and help I am not the mechanical type, it took me and a friend 3 hours to pull the lights and bumper. Broke 4 tabs

robbing a dead guy is much different then buying parts off his car. im sure he would be happy that the parts are being used if the family still owns the car i would be even more inclined to buy it seeing as it would be helping them out.
i say buy the parts you need
