Default Sourcing interior trim pieces

I have an '04 Roadster that was broken into which resulted in a number of panels getting destroyed as thieves tried to steal the stereo and what-not. I've been looking around for used interior trim pieces to replace those that were destroyed beyond repair or missing (they stole some really odd pieces). I've searched the marketplace but there's not much activity and ebay is hit or miss. I have an older Miata which underwent something similar and I found salvage yards that specializes in Miatas. I was able to get on the phone with a list of parts and they shipped everything I needed in once shot. Is there anything like this for 350Zs or any recommendations of where I can find used parts?

I have an '07 ZR that has been used for racing parts, send me a list of interior parts as well and I'll check what I have.

Thanks guys. So I am not certain which parts are backwards compatible with an '04 as I know in '06 Nissan updated the Z's interior. My Z is also a roadster so I know there are some differences there as well. Here's the parts I currently need to replace:

The passenger door pull (with bolts if they're available):


Then there's the passenger dash kick panel and the cup holder. The cup holder is there but the cover for it is missing. I also believe there's an additional cigarette lighter in this panel as well. I'm not sure though. I'm not entirely clear on what this should look like.



Then there's the coin holder/ash tray in the center console:


The center console stack, the gauges are fine and the lower portion with the ***** is fine, but the stack itself is destroyed:


Then behind the driver's seat, the cigarette lighter cover is broken and I'm missing one of the glove boxes. I do have the cover for the subwoofer; it's just removed in the pic.


Also for some reason the small, black clips that hold the visors in, both driver and passenger are missing:


Driver's door air vent is busted:


And the trunk has been gutted. I have only the spare and foam pieces around it. So it's missing the bottom, carpet and linings:

You're correct in asking about the 07-08 mid-model refresh and whether those interior parts were different. Nissan revised the interior enough that many of the parts in photos 1-6 need to come from a 03-06 ZR to fit correctly. It looks like the thieves did a pretty thorough job of trashing your interior. Hard to believe they searched behind all those panels to look for ???

In any case, the problem with several of the parts I have that will fit (rear interior panel and glovebox, trunk panel, carpet and linings) is their size. I'll sell them fairly, but they're BIG and the freakin' packing and shipping costs will eat you alive! Are you certain you want to pay that? If so, PM me or post here and I'll get busy.

Thanks guys. Yeah, the shipping is a pain for the larger items. I'm going to try and see what I can source locally for the larger parts and see what I can find.

By the way, as a guy who recently bought a LOT of interior parts for his 2005 350Z and really was not up to visiting the local junk yard. Ebay is your friend for convenience. Just start searching, you will find everything. I did get lucky and my local Z shop had a donor car in the parking lot and I also did visit there for some parts. He was super cheap, but I had to remove them myself. The other thing is look hard at the pictures to ensure all the plastic connectors are there, they break easy when removing the panels. Also, most all of the parts can still be purchased "new" from nissan. Very expensive of course, but I did l pay for certain pieces that you "touch" and see every day.
