whats there to do? they are all pretty much the same. Go with the ones that look the best to you or have the right price. I went with the clear diamond ones from Afterthought autos. Ebay has a bunch as well - clear ones, smoked ones, go with the ones that you like the most. You can get new bulbs or reuse the stock ones if you want, nothing changes.

Get the cheap ones from ebay and seal them with some clear RTV around the seam when the lens and the housing come together. They shouldn't leak after that.

We got ours off of Ebay -- $28 shipped. They look good, and we've had no leaking problems. I am very satisfied.

I found these on ebay. Sounds like most people get there clear corners on ebay. These were the only ones I found.

Not a bad price but the description mentions that it's basically just the casing; no bulb or socket. How hard is it to transfer the socket to the new clear corners?

Your sockets should be connected with your bulbs right now. Sucks that they don't come with bulbs though, the ones that I got did.

Get chrome bulbs... looks clear when off, but light up legally.

I had those chrome bulbs from xenon and the little bulbs light,didnt look the same as the bigger bulbs light...you could distinctivly see the were to different shades of light in their....didnt like 'em so I left the little chrome bulb in and got the silver star bulbs,man those are really sharp amber and the corner bulb is still clear...I kinda like it....but IDK...I prolly like just using the stock bulbs...that way the WHOLE lens is one color,instead of slightly off.
