Selling some w124 headlights

I got a new car after high school (graduated june 2006) and this car is only driven once or twice a week and there is no point to have both headlights at my house. I have the original US spec headlights in a box and the Euro style headlights (TYC) that are on the car right now. They were installed in 2005 and after 2006, the car usually sits in the garage and gets driven once or twice a week to keep her running smooth. Whichever pair you want, I'll sell. I want to get rid of one pair. Just whatever is a bit under market value for them is what I'll sell to you guys for the MBworld price.

Cheers,
Freddie

Oh and we'll be getting rid of the car using this "cars for clunkers" bill and getting 4500 from it to get myself a newer car. If your car isn't running that well (mine is okay but I don't think I can sell it for over 3k) maybe this is your best bet.

I think I also have one front corner lamp. I bought them from somebody on here as a pair but one was missing a clip. It is the style that is frosted with a bit of amber on the side. I will find out whether it is the driver side or passenger side when I come home tonight.

It is coming from a 1987 300e.

I prefer for a local pick up but I am traveling to Fresno, CA tomorrow morning and will be coming back that same day. If you want to check shipping prices, my zip code is 91790.

Hey, did I read this right that I can buy your euro-spec headlamps for just the cost of postage and a decent joke?


Edit: zip 49503, I'm still working on the joke

Did you already clunk the car?

Anyway you can part out some of the interior or would they say no with missing pieces?

Be ready to shell out cash for genuine Bosch/Hellas. I managed to get a set of DEPOs on and they are MOSTLY acceptable. I'm a bit miffed about fitment but the quality of the glass seems to be alright. I would have been better off getting the 94/95 US Spec Bosch housings and doing a lens swap to get the Euro-spec fluting and glass.

Hey guys, sorry about the HUGE delay. I waited a few days and never got a response so I haven't been here ever since but I randomly logged on and now see there is still a demand for it. I will leave this up for 3 more days and whoever gives me the best reason or just send something in return for these lights and I will choose a winner on December 14, 2009 and hopefully it will reach you in time for X-mas! You can either make your argument here or via private message. Oh and if you can find a job as a financial analyst out in Los Angeles, then you'll definitely be #1.

The TYC or TCY( don't remember) are installed in the car and I still have the wiper panels (unpainted) in the box and possibly the wiper blades if they came with it. I will take pictures of whatever you guys need tonight.

Take care,
Fred

Lastly, I will throw in all the random junk i have for the car. I think I have some corner lights, maybe floor mats, and parts of the seats such as the side plastic cladding. Someone will sure enjoy their Christmas.

So you did pick a winner? Did he/she send a joke? Perhaps you could share...
