JDM CC Pricing Question - Honda Prelude Forum

lude_vtec · 01-20-2004, 08:35 PM

Someone is offering to sell me the JDM CC unit with everything needed to complete the swap. It was pretty much taken out of the JDM Lude without disconnecting the wires n such. He's offering to sell it to me for around $300 picked up. Is this a good deal? I don't have a whole lot of time to complete the swap right now, but if this is a good/rare deal I really want to get it before they start becoming even more rare/pricey.

Here's the pic of what he's offering me:

Thanks

I bought one complete for $215 shipped at one time.

Well there is a lot of extra parts there you won't end up needing. I don't see the interior temp sensor either.

As for the price, I think $300 is about the average people pay for the parts needed. It is not an extraordinary deal but seems pretty good.

He's only giving me til midnight (about 2 hrs. here) for the offer. I'm debating whether I should get this or JDM headlights and fogs. I really don't have the time to put the CC in, plus I don't have a spare car if I have problems during the install. By the way I saw it in the CC install threads, it looked like some problems can arrise pretty easily. Btw, the indoor temp sensor is included, but it's not in that pic.

Heads and fogs for sure. CC is only for bragging rights.

i'd say take the JDM CC while there are some still left around...especially the entire system......just my input

^ Any idea how hard it is to find a complete set of fogs these days?

I'd go with the 1 pieces and the Fogs. I did.

headlights and fog lights!!!

Zimmlude · 01-21-2004, 12:47 AM

The CC is for more than bragging rights!!!

But seriously, I would go for the heads and fogs first. The install for the CC is a serious pain. I took my whole dash out and spent a good 10-12 hrs soldering and splicing to make it work. If you can't afford to have your car out of commission for a week, I wouldn't even try it.

Was this on ebay?

lude_vtec · 01-21-2004, 04:17 PM

Yeah... he gave me a second chance offer since I was the second to last bidder. I didn't get it though... maybe some other day.

I hate you guys; I paid like $350 for mine shipped!

CrazieLude · 01-21-2004, 05:33 PM

in saw a complete set go for 115 shipped. I was SO pissed. I didnt have the money at the time...grrr. the guy had 3 sets and sold the other 2 for 200+.
