What parts?
I Have an 2005 300C with the hemi.
Everything I've needed for it I have bought on line from the USA because local Chrysler aren't very good. The USA deliver quickly

Yeah he wants the car as a daily so his number 1 concern is if anything goes wrong with it it'll be stuck on a hoist or in the driveway on stands.

There is a massive Fiat/Chrysler parts warehouse in Port Melbourne now that services their dealer network, you would assume with the commonality of the hemi they would have all the bits for it on hand. The only issue is price - I have heard stories of people being charged upwards of a grand for a Cherokee drivers side mirror! Best bet is to order in from overseas.

Parts from the wreckers are very expensive. I wanted to buy a bonnet, but he was only willing to sell me a package of front bumper, grille, bonnet and I think lights for $5,000. I passed.

Not sure of the first gen, but gen 2... EXPENSIVE!!!!!

head lights 3k...mirrors 2k... radar system 3.5k.

this is new from Chrysler. I haven't needed them but asked prices when buying my car and I work in the insurance world, so I do see part prices time to time. gen 2 parts can take time to arrive, depending on the part thou.
