The "hassle" arguement certainly is worth considering as it is a lot of work to dispose of car parts of this nature. The sawzall method is VERY noisy and if you are in a neighborhood one I would probably avoid. The third method of course does require money for oxygen and acetalyne and is certainly a fire and breathing hazard. My vote: pay someone to remove and live well.
