What About Your Old US Lights?

If you follow the advice in this section, you will have most likely decided to replace your US spec tail lights with Euro lights.

So what do you do with your old ones? First thing is don’t be a clown and assume that because you paid £130 for your new Euro ones that your old “genuine USA tail lights” are worth £100 of anyones money – they are not!

They are no use to you, and they are of little use to anyone else. I have lost count of the number of US rear lights I have seen on UK eBay with some hopeful soul expecting £120+ for them. They will stay in his garage forever at that price.

The people who will buy them are these folks:

  • People who want to occasionally fit US ones for authenticity; perhaps for shows or the American car rally.
  • People who are able to convert them to amber indicators and sell them on after they have worked on them.
  • People who have a car with converted US lights on who have damaged one of them.
  • And… er… thats about it!

The going rate to those folks who can use them is about £50 a pair. Advertise them on one of the Mustang related forums you will find on the page here.

If you do find anyone who is paying a premium for them, tell us all about it using the box below.
