Dear Moderators: please forgove me if I am posting this in wrong forum. Please move it to correct forum then

Hello

 

My friend has told me that certain car parts are made from Aluminium Alloy that contains Aluminium, Magnesium and Copper. 

This was once called Duraluminium and was used in plane industry. 

Would anyone here perhaps know what part in the car is made with alloy that contains at last 90% Aluminium 4-5% Copper 4-5% Magnesium?

 

I don't need the parts, I want alloy itself. 

I live in United Kingom and horrible ''Health & Safety'' laws here make it almost impossible to buy anytthing that is considered unusual.

I just wish to know what series of Aluminium Alloy is closest to Dural alloy in composition and which car parts are made from it. 

Then I try buying those parts for alloy itself. 

 

Thank You in Advance

      hi i had a question about wiring diagrams for a P56038931AB radio
      By robert223
      I seen someone else posted about this radio here https://www.dodgeintrepid.net/10-general-discussion/88425-pinout-what-each-wire-does-radio-need-find-out.html , i parted this out of a 2002 dodge grand caravan sport, the thread above me he had the same radio except it was parted out of a 2000 car, the wires arnt the same color as described on that fourm, and no matter where i look i cant find anything that has the same exact wire color, im assuming they changed the harness after 2000. The colors for my radio are on the grey harness red grey, blue pink, brown grey, light/baby blue grey, orange brown, orange yellow, green brown, green blue. on the black harness its White purple, yellow grey, grey, green yellow, green, green, dark blue, green orange, grey orange. then it has a metal silver cable looking thing attached to it which is seprate from each harness. hope you guys can help me out, date codes 1852 its just hard to find exact diagrams for this, if you cant help because this harness has odd colors, could you link a wiring harness that might be more common? thanks again.
