Stock pickups in a Special II -- worth ebaying, altering, what?

I've got tuners and stock pickups from the Special II left over after upgrading it, that I don't know what to do with. Should I ebay them or try to alter them, or take the magnets out and modify a DiMarzio pickup (ceramic vs Alnico 2 magnets?), or what? :s

 

Is it worth finding a junk guitar for $10 in a pawn shop and tossing these into it maybe?

haha... yeah I got some Sperzels for $50, satin chrome (instead of shiny chrome), actually doesn't clash with the shiny chrome hardware everywhere else. Locking tuners are great, even without the whammy; only wind the strings a bit (maybe 2 turns) so they don't snap off when tuning, and they don't slip! The stock tuners fell apart when I took them off :x
