Market for used mods?

I am leasing my 07 GT. If I get a CAI and tune put on, will I be able to sell the CAI and tuner when I turn in the car in about 1 1/2 years?
I don't put a lot of miles on a car. I estimate I will have less than 12,000 miles when it goes back. So , is there a market for gently used CAI's and tuners? If so, how much of the original cost could I expect (ballpark) percentage wise?
THANKS!

You'll sell it with no problem. Visit the "for sale thread" for lots of items. I have sold several items in just a few days. But the other follow right... you got to make it look attractive.

One word - ebay. You'll at least get 50% in return as long as you buy the right mods in the first place - i.e. don't buy something no one wants new.

I will never pay more than 50% of the new price when purchasing used parts.

Be sure you keep the original parts and boxes if possible.
