Default The calipers themselves not much - the value is the carriers which can be used by VW guys

to upgrade to the 12.3" rotors. The calipers themselves are the same as are the pads.

Default you could probably get $300 max for the OEM setup

that would include the carriers and the rotors. The calipers aren't needed on the MKIV Golfs/Jetta, but you can throw em in if they want. =)

I think I have seen new kits with cross drilled/slotted for like $499, so use that as a guide.

Default Not that this is a good benchmark for market value, but...

The TT front calipers cost about $350 each from the dealer.

I offered to sell my set for $400 to a guy and he walked because he had a MKIV golf and wanted to experiment w/ this caliper. He thinks that the caliper is the same except that the TT caliper has a slighty bigger piston. Don't know if that is a fact. Anyway he didn't want to spend $400 on an experiment.

Maybe the MK III golfs need these calipers if they were to go to a 12.3" brake setup.

Anyway, I'm keeping mine until I get a decent offer or decide to put them back on the car. I've hedged and sold my carriers.
