grretc Posted May 18, 2011 Posted May 18, 2011 Hi everyone, I'm looking to pick up some 240z tail lights. Must be the one from Australia, the one that has amber in it. I can trade you guys some USDM tail lights which look like this: http://www.dragtimes.com/images-classifieds-large/240z-Tail-Light-Set-for-sale_260757590258.jpg Buyer must be willing to ship to the US, and I will pay for shipping on my part. If you guys need any parts from the US let me know!! Thanks! Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted May 18, 2011 Administrators Posted May 18, 2011 They are pretty hard to get now mate, I found a spare set in average condition on eBay. I think I got them around $200 AU, by the time you pay for shipping and cleaning them up (re-plastic chrome) and paint the black line on them, polishes the lenses and remove cracks etc.. I think you'll be around $350-$400 in. So if you can find a good set of OEM ones close to that I'd go for that. Although I've seen em' on Ebay US for $900 or something ridiculous like that. If I was in Australia I'd try and help you out, but currently not. So hopefully others can help you out. Might be worth asking someone with contacts in Japan for them. Quote
Patch Posted May 18, 2011 Posted May 18, 2011 Just looked at mine, can see why you want to swap ours are much nicer. Quote
Moderators Zedman240® Posted May 19, 2011 Moderators Posted May 19, 2011 Got some here that I'd sell but not trade... unless we can trade something not zed related.. Quote
specialp3 Posted May 19, 2011 Posted May 19, 2011 I know these are not original but are very good copies, you need to contact the seller, Ataka, as you can check out if you are not in the uS. http://shop.jdm-car-parts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2&products_id=67 Quote
MickyG Posted May 19, 2011 Posted May 19, 2011 I bought a set of reproduction lenses, (lenses only, not the full tail light assembly), from Otomoto for AUD500 a few months ago. They were shipped direct from Japan to Australia so I'm sure Ben could arrange shipping direct to the US. Frankly for what I paid I thought the quality was pretty poor, but they still look better than the US spec lenses they're going to replace... Quote
grretc Posted May 20, 2011 Author Posted May 20, 2011 If anyone has them feel free to PM me with what you're looking for. I'm still on the prowl. Thanks to everyone who posted imitation lights, but it's just not what I'm looking for. I'm more of an OEM guy. Trying to restore a series one 240z right now and trying to get my hands on a series one 240z right hand drive. Quote
grretc Posted January 13, 2012 Author Posted January 13, 2012 Bump! Still looking and now wanting the mesh grille as well as front turn signals! Does anyone have some they want to sell? Ready to buy!! Quote
