Mine are leaking and fogged up, I tried drilling holes and for awhile that helped but the lenses are dirty on the inside, I need to replace them.

I heard of some OEM or stock style clear corners but I can't find them nor do I know who makes them. I heard of APC clears that dont leak but once again can't find them. I am avoiding the diamond clear corners.. any advice?

My advice is to go back to stock and deal with it. I've tried three different brands and all of them melted and leaked.

I have tried many different ones including the most recent clear ones that i was told by many people on here that don't leak sold by a guy named neodials on ebay. They have all eventually leaked, im gonna switch to leds since they give off much less heat because the stock bulbs melt the housings that is why my current ones leak

Oh yeah also by the way i tried the other clear ones, the ones that look frosted, and those leaked too you just couldn't tell as much because they aren't as clear as the "diamond" clear ones

you can always run a bead of silicone around the backside before installation

I've been looking into clear corners and since I don't daily drive the SS it won't get caught in the rain so I should be ok. The melting is caused from the bulbs or the sun?

The bulbs melt them...i have had like 5 different sets in the 10 years i have owned an fbody, i have ran silicone around the seams and everything but eventually every set i have had has melted and let water in that's why im gonna just swap to leds cuz they produce alot less heat

The ones from neondials are Depo brand IIRC and they lasted the longest when I had black corners. They were showing signs of getting a bit cooked later on but never had a problem with them. I ended up just using a couple coats of VHT on my stock corners for my 99 though as I didn't care for the white border on the lens from the sealant they used plus the way the bulbs reflected in them seemed a bit odd (particularly the small 194 bulb on the side).
