Default Going to junkyard saturday!

Finally going to a junkyard for the first time this saturday and I can't wait. The big thing on my list is an exploder OHC. I'd also like to snag the clear plastic that goes over the cluster. I also want to look for a lincoln town car or crown vic to get the chrome shifter and turn signal handles. I'd love to get some stainless steel tow hooks but I'm not getting my hopes up for that.

So my question is aboat how much should I expect to pay for all this?
explorer OHC
shifter and turn signal handles
stainless tow hooks
clear plastic for guage cluster

Hey if you find the clear plastic for the gauge cluster for a 1993, could you pick me up one? Mines so faded I can barely see through it. PM me if you would please

Don't about all the stuff but I paid $40 for my OHC.

Here's some popular junk yard finds... don't know if you already have or not interested?
Explorer/Mountaineer lighted visors
Mustang dome light with map lights?
03 or older ranger with cargo lights in the 3rd brake light?
Autodimming rearview mirrors
