Step by Step: How to get a CA Salvage Title<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Exact instructions from the DMV.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The DMV has very specific instructions on how to get a salvaged title. I have provided a link directly to the California DMV website with detailed instructions on what items you need to get a California salvaged title from the DMV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will do very well to shop around as the price of a brake and light inspection can vary greatly. The only fixed cost the shop has is the cost of the California Brake and Lamp Inspection Certificate which costs only $7, the rest of the cost is labor. We have found that prices vary from $60-120 for a brake and light inspection and certificate and this cost is negotiable at some shops.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
