Need thoughts on recent aquisitions

Picked up a couple things this weekend, really don't know what they're worth, just what I was willing to pay. Just wondering what the going rate should be on these:

#1 Low black windshield for the 1991 - 1994 Ski Doo Formula series. It's off a '91 Mach 1 and it's either fiberglass or Metton. I think it's stock. The clear coat was peeling so I hit it with 320 grit on a DA sander and have it in primer now. No cracks, no broken tabs. From what I hear they're pretty rare. Figured I'd throw it on my '94 Grand Touring for a laugh.

#2 Set of Toy Carriers for my trailer. I haven't seen any prices on line, but figure they're pretty expensive since I've never actually seen one in person before. Pics are below.

I've seen the enclosures in my area and was quite surprised to see how much they were going for. A two-place aluminum enclosed 10' trailer goes for around $1500-$2000 here depending on year, and I seem to recall the style like you got were at least 50% more expensive.

I got my Allum 2 placce at the Hastings Swap a few years ago for $600 in fairly good shape, the deck may need to be replaced in a coupla more years?
The fiberglass shell is probably like $1500??
The windshield if perfect $50?

$50 seems low for a NLA part that even the aftermarket companies don't produce.

I got the windshield for free, attached to the '91 hood (with broken hinge mounts) and full set of gauges. Pulled the gauges, screens and windshield and scrapped the hood.

I actually traded trailers to obtain the Toy Carriers. I had an aluminum '08 Karavan, leaf spring tilt bed with a PowerMadd salt shield I picked up for $600 two years ago. The one I received is an '04 Karavan, torsion spring tilt bed. I threw in another $800 cash. So I've got $1400 into it.

'94 Grand Touring w/121" track fit fine. The 98" Touring LE w/136" track also fit fine.
