Of course for all the labor involved in replacing a clutch, it is best to go with the highest quality, brand new clutch you can reasonably get. There are good opportunities to buy a 'purchased, but never installed' clutch. If you are Very short on cash and need a clutch a slightly used clutch from a wrecked car will be adequate.

Here's a sampling of USED stuff available on eBay at the moment. The fact that someone is selling it does not mean that it is suitable or sensible for use:



BTW, I have 2 gently used AOSs available if anyone needs one.
