This is a very hard question to answer because when you buy stuff like a compressor from an auto wrecker you never know things like, how much use the part had before the car was junked. Was the part in good condition, etc, etc. Then you have to ask yourself.....do you want to put in the junk parts and find out that it might possibly crap out after a short time. In other words, there's no guaranty that you'll get satisfactory service. This is the chance you're going to have to take. Personally, I would get the new replacement parts.

You never mentioned what year ES you have.

i would get the new one as well, especially if you live inland in california...and especially cause its summer. if you lived on the coast like me, then i guess it doesnt really matter. how much is the part at the salvage yard? i would start saving just in case.
