OEM Tail lights

hardly used set of original red tail lights. Within a couple of weeks I swapped them out with the smoked set.

I was very careful to repackage them and they sat in the box ever since.

repriced due to the very kind gentlemen members below $275 for the set. But really, make an offer or show where they are being sold so I can look at the prices so I can understand why the two gents below are so overly kind.

what too much...? I really don't know what they are going for, just did a search on gmpartsdirect.com and they were $440.

anyway, thanks for the kind words, really nice of you both.

Anyone that thinks they have a fair offer are welcome to make one.

The problem is the simple supply vs demand equation. Many swap out their OEM red taillights for the smoked GM ones, and are then willing to let go of their originals for a low price. Since practically no reverse swaps happen at all, the demand and willingness to pay for these is rather low.

However, you do have a fair shot at targeting non-RS LS, 1LT or 2LT owners who have regular incandescent bulbs in their taillights, because yours are LED and look much better in person, so don't give up, I think the revised price is fair and you should see some interest.

Hey thanks, I do get the market for red ones will be lower, I mean after all I wanted the smoked myself. I just got the itch in the last two days to sell my Aeroforce gauge and then, I said what the hell, i don't need these tail lights sitting here either. Worth a shot, or they end up sitting in my garage for 10 years.

Welcome to the club, mine and about 30people local camaros still have them in the garage :P Keep them, and whenever anything happens, sell the smoke... that's guarantied money in your pocket.

I'm still not sure why people aren't just putting these and the OEM side markers in the "Pay-It-Forward Freebies" section lol. You would have to pay most people to take them off your hands. Your best bet is Ebay or maybe some repair shop in need of a pair.

What I would do if I were you is put them away in storage where they wont get ruined. Then, when you go to sell or trade your car, swap them back out for the smoked ones. Then you can sell them on here or ebay and basically get your money back out of them! a nice way to make a quick $400 after you sell/trade your car. A dealership or private buyer wont give you any more $ for your car just because you have more desirable tail lamps. Just like any other mod besides a super charger or turbos.

You see here, someone else is selling them for 135$.

https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=544361

Not low balling you at all. I wish these could sell for the price you are asking. But I agree with the people above, unless theirs are broken and they need a replacement, the step to go with the smoked ones is not that much compared to the work involved to smoked them ourselves and knowing what the difference is between the OEM dark ones.

Good luck with that. If I had a spare kit I'd like to attempt tinting them darker to fit my NGM but I don't think paying 200+ is worth it.

Hope they will sell!!
