If they were in REALLY good shape, this would not be a ridiculous price. I would get the connectors with them, though (the other end from the wiring harness in the car).

Note that I had a very bad experience with a set in "needing a little TLC" condition, which wound up costing me more than new ones to rebuild. If the reflectors are very rusty, just walk away. If they are not TOO bad, they can be rechromed, but even this is not optimal. In Europe, those reflectors are not cheap; in the US, they are harder to find than grizzly bear tonails. Examples of costs of the parts you CAN get here with only minor difficulty (I buy a lot of parts over the net and know of only ONE supplier who sells these items)

Side markers - $40 ea (w/gaskets)
Lenses - $40 ea (no gaskets)
