Hello, all! I’m in the process of getting a delightful old 2 door off a coworker. This will be my 2nd xj. I had a ‘92 4 door for a few years, but an idiot roomie got in a drunken fight with his girlfriend and decided to take my Cherokee for a roll or 3. He’s fine, they broke up, we don’t talk anymore. ANYWAY, I had enough on my plate with my ‘99 TJ and the wife’s ‘06 WK (since t-boned and replaced with an ‘06 XK) so I’ve been sitting on my love/lust for XJ’s until the right opportunity popped up. This one seems to be it. Never lifted, regular maintenance, antique this year, and a 2 door! I’ve got a fairly long list of things I wanna slap on it (to follow) but for now, I have a fairly simple question.

Chinese Cherokee taillights are definitely going to happen. I’ve found a guy in China on eBay who can put his hands on some, but I have no idea what a fair price for those things would be. Basically we’re trying to work together on this to get a fair price going so he can start offering them to dorks like us. What have folks like us paid in the past? What should/would we pay now? I want my guy to make enough profit to be able to keep doing this, but I don’t want to pay an absurd amount for something I could’ve gotten for $40. Thoughts? Experiences? Snide remarks?
