Ghostrider Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...utorefresh=true DR30 Hot Plates on ebay, just ended @ $202.50 AND these were not MINT, they had minor blemishes & small cracks in them, so I guess the sky is the limit for these style of tail lights. Makes my mint pairs worth over $400 easy.

cazz Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 DR30 hotplates are as rare as rocking horse whit. R31 lights are still available new, so there is nothing special about them. I have six pair in stock. I have a three pair of DR30 hotplates, but wouldn't ever sell them, and that is the way most people with a set of these lights, and a DR30 feel about having tjhe lights. DR30 hotplates are worth whatever anyone is prepared to pay for them. In context, V36 rear lights are over $400.00 list per side. If you can pick up good condition DR30 light for $200.00 per side, it's still a very cheap option.

D-limo Posted April 14, 2010 Author Share Posted April 14, 2010 I think a pair of neither cracked nor faded S1 lights are going to hold their value more than you think D. Obviously the S2's are more popular, but s1's in above mentioned condition are just as sought after as excellent condition S2's in Japan from what I've seen.

I think I had better take my near-perfect, non-cracked, non-faded hotplates off the rally car then! Problem is, what's the point in having them if you aren't going to use them (or to keep as spares)...

Matty T Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Hey, before I go off about non-faded - has anyone got a picture of some faded ones? I mean, mine don't look brand new (why would they), but the red is still red and the yellow is still yellow. Interesting offer D-limo! I'll give that some serious cons... no.

D-limo Posted April 15, 2010 Author Share Posted April 15, 2010 (edited) Couple of interesting pics I came across today in my searches. Also my lights at the right for matty. Anyone know if the lenses come apart easily?.. Thinking a can of transparent red or nightshade could do wonders.

D-limo Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 Pretty much what I was getting at. Spray the insides of the lenses leaving the light circles alone.

cazz Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 To bust everyones bubble, I have just managed to source 4 sets from Japan, brand new, through my Nissan Dealer. As well as every single panel.

Ghostrider Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Good for you & you don't need to get them new from a dealer. If your using Japan as the source, any number is available through Yahoo. I have just ordered parts from KRS for my PNV and I hope I can get them before the nationals.
