Who wants a set of Euro tail lights for under $200?

These are for a 70 to 73.5 240z.

For those of you not familiar, Klearz.com is manufacturing 'reproduction' lenses for Z cars. I've already bought some lenses for my 280ZXT so I know they are a legit company at least from my initial experience.

http://www.klearz.com/zcar.html#8

If 5 or more people put in $20 deposits, they'll make a run of these tail lights for $200 / SET! Hello! $200 / SET? When was the last time anyone even found a price on OEM NOS Euro tail lights?

I'll tell you. 2 months ago and they sold for $1200! This was the LAST known complete set of Euro tail lights. If anyone is interested, I know of someone in Canada with two driver side euro tail lights for $500 EACH! No passenger side. Not even a matched set.

Anyway, I want a set for my 240z so I'm trying to drum up enough interest to get the run going. $200 for a set!

PM me if you're interested.

Here's a pic of a set of dis-assembled euro tail lights. This is similar to what will be delivered, so you'll want to keep your original housings:



Cheers,
LWW

These are available from time to time it you watch for them...I have managed to find three complete sets over the past 18 months and the average price I have paid is $106.66/each. One set didn't come as a set, rather I found a passenger side for $20 and a year later I found a driver's side for $50. Please do know that these were SCREAMING deals and are all very out of the ordinary...these normally do run $500+

As for the reproduction lenses...there is a company already making them and selling them (they are in stock). Take a look here at about the third product down the page: http://www.datsunrestore.com/photo4.html
