Default smoked turns on ebay

Do not buy smoked turn signals from eurosportgarage on ebay. I drove my car with them on for no more then 20 miles and they were already all fogged up. It rained the day after i put them on and they had water in them. They aren't sealed at all, so i have to go back, take them out and seal them up right. I sent a message to the seller and they didn't respond for over a week. They refuse to do anything to help b/c they are just a wholesaler and not the manufacturer. I went to the manufact website and they dont respond to retail consumers, and they only accept exchanges within 48 hours after the product was recieved. Too bad eurosportgarage didn't write back for over a week.

Terrible company and i will never do business with them again. If you cant find the turns anywhere else, make sure you seal them before you put them on your car.

FWIW I've tried 3 different kinds and they have all leaked. Try selaing them with silicone. Some people drill holes in them also.

Haha Im on my 4th pair of turns and I have another new pair sitting in a box ready to go in soon as I get fed up with the ones I already have installed. Its a known fact that aftermarket turns are garbage (but they look good). You have to take the time to seal them, and even though I have always done that, they still leak. Either way I try to change them somewhat yearly.

I bought mine from eurosportgarage. Ive had them on there for almost a month and they are still crystal clear. Its rained a shitload too. Look really cool too. The thing that pissed me off was i didnt realize there was bulbs in the package until a week later when i found them on the floor. Must of fallen out of the box when i opened it or something.
