And the other half is $109! I'd rather buy an ounce of silver for $20.

I get my matches from the HI Liter club in Phoenix Tguy sends them to me when I get low

Been a long while for me, but my buddy goes there every Thursday afternoon.

He wants a lighter, where did he say he wants a complete unit (at gold standard prices) ?

 

[KC87]

close but no cigar

Like yeah-ah! That's a cigar lighter, he wants a cigarette lighter.

Maybe hes waiting for his next EBT reload.

It's that same as the Dorman replacement I paid $4.99 for and GAVE AWAY my OEM unit because someone needed it. That's my point here.

It looks and works just fine when it's not in the ashtray because I still log runs via a laptop.........

Sorry, but I've ever met a black plastic "flange" I thought was worth $200. And like I said, I did the RIGHT thing in my opinion and helped a Buick brother out instead of dragging him through hot coals......... But that's just me.

I've given away lots and lots of quality OEM parts at my own cost, even paid shipping. I guess I just see these cars and this hobby differently.

If I'm gonna spend $200, my car better go a teeny, weeny, tiny, l'il bit faster....... That's all I'm a'sayin'.

Even if the glove box flops open on the launch!!!!! LOL

Hey OP,

If you want the one I have now (pictured) let me know.

It's yours for the asking. Not perfect OEM, but damn close.

I was going to use it so I can hook up a Bluetooth transmitter so I can play music from my phone. I only need the socket portion. Kwiksix thanks for the pics and getting back to me. I did not realize they go for that much. I need to think about it some more before I decide. i will let you know. Thanks again!

Remember the old saying, "They're only worth what someone is willing to pay"

OK, Guys here is the correct lighter and dash socket for our 84 to 87 cars. They all came with the same lighter and dash socket. The lighter on the right is an aftermarket one. Pretty darn close just the knob is larger.
