Default 98 Mag ride system

I switched to coil overs and have my mag ride setup collection g dust in a box. Is it worth anything or just keep it in case? Thanks.

Me I'd keep them. If you ever sell I'd give them to the next owner.

Sell them to someone that will use them now, instead of rotting in a cabinet. They do go bad from age. Mine went out at 29,000 miles.

Plenty of members looking for them, in fact there is a current thread right here looking for them:

98’s didn’t come with the magnetic shocks unless you or someone did the conversion.

The shocks are going to be the most valuable items for all the folks that need to replace their current ones and want to leave the car OEM.
