I seriously doubt a dealer would give you anything more than low book for it. Also I'm sure most dealers wouldn't even accept it. The only real market IMO, is at the enthusiast level.

Agreed. You will get more for it if it were completely stock

I don't even know why people trade cars in at the dealer anyways? A dealer on average is going to give you 2-3k less then you would get by selling it private party.
