Default Tail lights 03-06 sellable?

Like the title says, I have a set of oem tails that are in great shape. I see plenty people converting to LEDs. So, are the non LED tails marketable and what do people get for them?

Most people just give them away, however, for your trouble I'd give you $20 + Shipping to 08052.

they're sellable. not for much. $50 for the pair would be an honest price. but fyi, they're 03-05 lights. 06+ had led.

To be honest, try eBay. Set them to like $15 bucks and see how high it'll go.
There's got to be some guy out there with cracked tail lights or something from getting rear ended and needs to replace and doesn't want to shell out much money for LED ones.

There are also 03-05 owners who converted, sold their halogen lights for cheap, and now want to trade their car in - but, not with the LED tails. I say put 'em up for 35-50 bucks + shipping and see what happens. You're bound to come across one of those people in that kind of a situation.

don't just trash them. they are sellable - to the right buyer. lots of rear end collisions out there, and misc. damage that people want to replace.

Dude, seriously don't listen to us. We are forum nerds. Put them on ebay and craigslist and you will get at least 80-100 bucks for them. Normal people (97% of Z owners) don't know about forums.

I bought an 06 (LED) one for $150ish which is a fairly good deal. Doesnt help you whatsoever, but since we were talking tail light prices..

Im sure you can find a buyer. Throw it up on craigslist, ppl will buy ANYTHING from there.

Throw them on Egay. Some people (like me) don't really like LEDs and theres only so many 350s out there so parts will always be worth something.
