Motorola out-of-date parts database?

It's spring time, and that means it's time to go through the parts room and make room for the new round of Motorola parts. Unfortunately we have +30 years worth of parts, and I have no clue what half of them go to.

Does anyone know if there is a Motorola database somewhere that breaks down what model radio goes with what part#? At least that way I can make a more informed decision when I start putting parts on eBay.

Thanks!

ran into similar deal a few years ago,went through all the old repair manuals and PDFs and basically batched up the old stuff ( HT90,HT600,M120 etc) and sold it on Ebay.We let the office staff do it in spare time when not busy doing office stuff.It took almost 3 weeks.Now we have or HAD room for more parts.Now we stock repair parts for Kenwood and Icom and HYT.

Not to state the obvious but... punching the part number into Google will normally bring up a parts list on somebody's website?

Most seem wildly outdated but for the purpose of IDing what part # belongs to which model that shouldn't matter too much.

Wile,

I would like to see the list as I buy spare parts for some older radios.
