I have a pair of windshield defrosters I'd like to sell. I believe they were made by Huma.

Does anybody have a ball park range for a selling price?

Thanks!

Just to use to get you in the ballpark.

I'd say that $285 is pretty damn high. And, they aren't advertised as NOS. They look used and broken. See the rivets on one of the mounting tabs?

I'd say $100 (give or take) is a good ball park price for a used set - complete and not broken.

Maybe $285 if they were NOS, mint shape in the original box.

Hold the quote phone for a sec. Do you have the metal "s" shaped hook brackets that clip onto the defroster vents? If not, value must be adjusted.

The clips went missing when I sold the 'vert but yeah... I planned to factor that in.

Thanks to everyone who replied.

Funny... after 15 yrs I just realized the tube tips were installed backwards.

I bought a pair of these a few years ago for $40. They were in perfect shape but one was missing one of the s clips. Luckily it was not hard to make one.
