John, I'm not trying to sound like an ***, but where did you go to school and learn to read? I've re-read this thing a good ten times to make sure I was right...
See the bolded word? For != plus for the record.
It's 1200 for the wheels. And an approximate $200 for shipping, by his guess.
If these were $200 for the wheels they would have been sold by now...
They were only on the car for about 7000 miles. i don't believe there are any curbs. There may be a few scratches on the wheels but thats it. I will try to get individual pictures for you guys. Im guessing it'd be about $50 or so per wheel. So maybe $200 for shipping. Thats just my guess.

Hey all, I'm rebuilding my front headlight leveling sensor tonight and it is corroded to he##. So much so that two of the three connector pins were rotted of at the base when I took the thing out on Sunday. With some new springs on the inside I think I can salvage it but how the heck am I going to get this thing connected again? Any ideas or and extra leveling sensor laying around some where?? I've been scouring eBay and parts places but no luck. I know I can just readjust the headlights without using the sensors but I'd like to have em working properly without spending $500! I'm going to look at the rear one this weekend. Happy Tuesday! ~William

Steve- any chance the front headlight auto level sensor was salvaged from your donor car?
Stig- Is the corrosion at the sensor for the wire harness?
If Steve doesn't have the sensor and the corrosion is at the harness, just cut the wires and add your own harness/connector.

Jon: Steve definitely has the sensors on the donor and the front one is in tact. I don't know if he got them off yet. I do recall him saying that his on his car were bad (I think) I wouldn't hurt to ask him though.

All I know is that last year for the first snow dusting i wiggled my whole ride to work. When that rubber gets cold enough you might as well just be ridding on your rims.

Stig: I still have the sensors off the Donor car. They have not been removed yet. I however, was going to keep them and rebuild mine also, which throw a fault code probably 70% of the time. I've noticed parking on gravel seems to confuse the sensor more. . . idk.
Are the $200 40th wheels sold?

two of the three prongs corroded off so i can't get a connection back to the harness. all of the mechanical bits that attach to the car are fine. i'm going to take the rear off this weekend and see what condition that is in, i'm assuming as bad as the front. ~stig
