Auto Wreckers and Car Parts in Northern Cyprus: Where to Find New and Used Parts

In Northern Cyprus, it is easier to search for car parts using Turkish names: Google Maps and other search engines will show more local shops, warehouses and auto wreckers this way. Use the search term oto yedek parça for regular car parts, çıkma yedek parça for parts from dismantled cars, and oto söküm for auto wreckers. Large clusters of automotive businesses are located in the industrial zones of Lefkoşa, Karaoğlanoğlu near Girne, and Gazimağusa. Below are specific areas, shops and addresses to help you search.

How to search for car parts

When searching on your own, it is best to enter search terms in Turkish. This is especially useful on Google Maps: many small shops and auto wreckers in Northern Cyprus are listed only under a Turkish name or category.

What you need	Search term in Turkish
Car parts	Oto yedek parça
New parts	Sıfır yedek parça
Original parts	Orijinal yedek parça
New aftermarket part	Yan sanayi yedek parça
Used parts	İkinci el yedek parça
Parts from dismantled cars	Çıkma yedek parça / çıkma oto parça
Auto wrecker	Oto söküm
Car dismantling and scrap yard	Oto hurdacı

If you need a part for a specific make, add the car make to your search straight away: Toyota çıkma parça, Nissan yedek parça, Mercedes çıkma parça or BMW yedek parça. To search locally, add the town: for example, Toyota çıkma parça Lefkoşa or oto yedek parça Girne.

New, used and original parts

Three terms come up most often when searching. Orijinal means an original part made by the car manufacturer. Yan sanayi means a new, non-original part made by a third-party manufacturer—in other words, an aftermarket part. Çıkma means a used part removed from another car.

Çıkma parça is often searched for when an original body part, headlight, mirror, interior component, electronic control unit, engine or gearbox is needed. The term hurdacı has a somewhat different meaning: these businesses deal with scrapped cars, scrap metal and dismantling. If you need a specific working used part, the search term çıkma yedek parça is usually more precise.

Lefkoşa: shops and industrial zone

One of the largest clusters of automotive businesses is located in Lefkoşa Organize Sanayi Bölgesi. Shops selling new and used parts, auto electricians, repair shops and specialist suppliers operate in several neighbouring blocks.

How to find a specific part

When searching for a car part, it is best to have the vehicle details ready. The model name alone may not be enough: the same model can have different engines, gearboxes, electronics and body parts depending on the year of manufacture and trim.

How to do it

1. Have the make, model, year of manufacture and modification of the car ready.
2. If you know the part’s OEM number, use it in your search. This significantly reduces the risk of buying an incompatible part.
3. Take photos of the old part, its markings, mounts and connectors.
4. For a new part, use the search term make + yedek parça.
5. For a used part from another car, use make + çıkma parça.
6. Add the area: Lefkoşa, Girne, Gazimağusa, Güzelyurt or İskele.
7. Contact several sellers at once. Many shops accept photos and vehicle details via WhatsApp.
8. If the part is not available at the nearest shop, check whether another branch has it or whether it can be ordered.

For body parts, specify which side of the car you need. Sağ means “right”, and sol means “left”. For example, sağ ayna means right mirror, sol ayna means left mirror, and sağ far means right headlight.

Useful phrase for an auto wrecker

Çıkma parça var mı? means “Do you have a used part from a dismantled car?”

You can add the make and part name straight away. For example, Toyota Corolla çıkma sağ far var mı? means “Do you have a used right headlight from a dismantled car for a Toyota Corolla?”

What to check when buying a used part

When buying a çıkma parça, it is important to check not only the part’s appearance but also its markings, mounts, connectors and compatibility with the specific car modification.

Take particular care with engines, gearboxes, electronic control units and other expensive components. Before paying, check whether the part has been tested, whether you will have time to test it after installation, and whether it can be returned if it is faulty or incompatible. Terms vary between sellers.

For body parts, check what is included. For example, a door may be sold as a bare metal body part or as a complete assembly with glass, window regulator, lock, wiring, mirror and interior trim.

Frequently asked questions

What is an auto wrecker called in Turkish?

The term oto söküm is used to search for an auto wrecker. If you need a specific working used part from a dismantled car, it is often more useful to search for çıkma yedek parça.

What does çıkma parça mean?

Çıkma parça is a used part removed from another car. It may be an original factory part: a headlight, door, mirror, engine, gearbox, electronic control unit, interior component or another part.

What does ikinci el yedek parça mean?

This is a general term for used car parts. When searching specifically for parts from dismantled cars, çıkma yedek parça usually gives more accurate results.

What is yan sanayi?

Yan sanayi is a new, non-original part made by a third-party manufacturer. It is an aftermarket alternative to an original part, not a used part.

Where can I find auto wreckers in Lefkoşa?

Start by checking Lefkoşa Organize Sanayi Bölgesi and the industrial areas of Haspolat. Organize Sanayi is home to both regular car parts shops and used-parts sellers. One specific option is Avrupa Yedek Parça on 10. Sokak.

Where can I find car parts in Girne?

Many automotive businesses are located west of the centre of Girne, in Karaoğlanoğlu Sanayi Bölgesi. The main landmarks are Çiftlikler Yolu, Karaoğlanoğlu Caddesi and the neighbouring streets. There are also parts shops in Girne itself.

Why doesn’t Google Maps show many auto wreckers?

Small businesses are not always listed in the oto söküm category. On the map, they may be listed as oto yedek parça, oto servis, ikinci el yedek parça or simply under the company name. So use several Turkish search terms and check entire automotive industrial zones.

Can I order a part if the shop does not have it?

Yes. Many sellers work with suppliers and other branches. If the part is not available on site, ask whether it can be ordered or delivered from another area of Northern Cyprus.

How do I search for parts for a specific make?

Add yedek parça to the make name for regular parts, or çıkma parça for used parts. For example: Toyota çıkma parça, Nissan yedek parça, Mercedes çıkma parça. Add the town or area for more precise results.

Which is better: a used original part or a new aftermarket part?

It depends on the specific part, its condition, the aftermarket manufacturer and the cost. When buying a used original part, it is important to check its condition and compatibility; when choosing a new aftermarket part, check the manufacturer and warranty terms.
