I guess Cory saw all the interest in these here and decided to snap up a bunch of stock from Chrysler. It's too bad they are really overpriced from Chrysler because it will be difficult for them to sell at that price.

If I could just figure out how to meld the Outback and the Neon into one car...

That's because you are like most other neon owners: We be cheap bastids.

As long as junkyards continue to have them, and basically give them away for free... there's going to be a very small margin of people that will pay for new. And that's the people with more money than brains that simply insist it must be new.

I'm hoping the yard I usually go to gets some cars back in it soon. I used to go there all the time when I had my first gen. Found a lot of good parts there, but they recently completely emptied the U-Pull It yard and were supposed to be getting all new inventory. Hopefully some 2nd gens show up (they only had one before) and I can find some good parts, including the trunk lid carpet.

The difference is, junk yard ones are old and used. Brand new OE shit = cash money.

It's not Modern's fault that Mopar severely over prices these.
Also remember, this is pretty much an obsolete part. It hasn't been used in a new Neon since 01ish.
You really have to watch your junkyard ones. I was able to find a mint one for $10, but had it been a mess it would have stayed in the yard.

Being attached to the lid helps them a lot, but as for mold from sitting in an unsealed car, there is little to protect it from that.

Hell I just paid $70 for a set of OE floormats from a Chrysler dealer, and that was with my discount through work. 99% of people on here would just spend the $30 for aftermarket replacements at autozone. Some people like brand new stuff, and are willing to pay to get it.

I think I paid $60 for my OE floor mats with my dads discount and I'd much rather pay that for a set of stock floormats than a piece of flimsy carpet for the trunklid that i purely for aesthetics that I can buy in the same condition at a junk yard for almost nothing. Floor mats on the other hand are hard to come by or destroyed.

I see where you're coming from, and I agree. It all comes down to demand really. I don't think SRT cars came with those at all, so maybe that's where modern thinks they will make their money, with the money-in-hand SRT crowd.

It's not so much Modern is overpricing them, it's Mopar that is. I bought a new one back in 2002-2003 and paid about that much then as well.
