JEEPER1 Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 so what is everyone doin when you bust out a tail light housing i can't find a new or used one anywere, i havent tried a XJ one yet but I'm sure you guys have some ideas, i found a fabricator that makes metal ones for the xj, but again not sure how much mods needed to make it work thanks eric
shelbyluvv Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Most of us hoard them and have at least 3 sets in our garages. If we don't have them, a want to buy thread in the classifieds usually can produce a set for around $50-$75.
fiatslug87 Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Yup, classifieds or a JY if you're lucky. XJ lights & early Dakota lights won't work, many threads on this topic.

Dechion Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Not sure where you are located, but there are three good tail lights at the Wadsworth Ill Pick-N-Pull for $20-$25 each. At least they were there Wednsday when I made the trip down. No idea when I might be headed back, but if you are close enough they are sitting there waiting for you.
sinkrun Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 I have a extra set (if I can find them) that another club member never sent money for. They are decent but someone glued the back up light sockets in they used epoxy. $25.00 plus shipping for the pair.
ParadiseMJ Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Every (2) MJ I've come across at the junkyard has had taillights. I have not paid more than $20 each. There are some on ebay usually but can be pricey...$50-$100 EACH. I searched...none on there right now, they go fast or $$.

There are some on ebay usually but can be pricey...$50-$100 EACH. I searched...none on there right now, they go fast or $$. The 2 sets I got from the P&P were $20 each. Don't know what the regular JY charge, although shouldn't be much more. The P&P'S are generally standard price, regardless of rarity or demand. The JY depends. If the management is aware of the demand then the price goes up.
Tymanche Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Have you been on http://www.car-parts.com it has a list of every Junk Yard that has them hoop it helps :thumbsup:
neverstuck Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 I also am a taillight hoarder. I just bashed one out like 3 weeks ago, i was heartbroken :mad: I still have a few left though. Will survive; as a comanche owners, we realize the importance of our treasured taillights and the giddy feeling we get when we see a set at the junkyard. :banana:
AMCJeepMJ Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 I hoard MJ tail lights too. If I find an MJ in a self service yard with intact lights, they end up coming home with me. They go for some pretty nuttybonkers prices on ebay.
