Question Where to Source transmission parts?

Trying to get source a new clutch and flywheel but seems that parts are starting to fall off the map for the Gen1.
Anyway to know what parts would be compatible that aren't listed as such? Like a year range of Yaris/tC models that would have interchangeable parts? Or a good source in general to find what I need?

If I plug in my make / model into eBay or auto parts places the cheapest flywheel is an OEM for $300 (insane!).. I was thinking of the Exedy 16800A clutch kit but if I can't source a flywheel I'm not sure
I should spend that much on a clutch. I feel like I'm chasing my tail to find parts efficiently.

Personally, I like to stay with OEM Parts for Reliability and Durability. Rarely do Aftermarket, eBay parts hold up as well.
You get what you pay for. Ultimately, it's your Decision.

A Good Source for reliable Discount Toyota/Scion Parts is found HERE

Hope this Helps,

Remember, you don't always have to replace a flywheel. If it's not too bad, resurfacing is always a viable option.
