This document suggests where you can resell and reuse these salvageable items. Generally, the repurpose price is more than the value in scrap. Because scrap prices fluctuate almost daily, there is an incentive to recycle and repurpose rather than dispose of these components in landfills. Tools needed The HPR Ignition Console disassembly can be accomplished with basic hand and power tools that are readily available worldwide.
