clear corners

buy a new set. as for the clear corner let me guess was it the right side? it happened to already , i uesd silcone, it worked for a while, then it happened again. you have a lot of companies selling them, but most of them are overprised or garbage, check interautomart, i just bought a set of eurolite clear corners from him, they went on with no problem, don't buy them from ebay. just to let me know this my third set of clear corners, 1 set customaxima, 2 set southwestautoworks, and the third set was cheaper in price

my understanding was that all of the 3rd gen clear corners came from the same manufacturer.. meaing that they all are cheapos... meaning they will all split evnetually. therefore, it doesnt matter where you get them.

anyone have any info which suggests otherwise?

corners

solved problem
got my bros heater gun took the whole lens off
heated all the glue off it was cheap glue came off easy
cleaned surface on casing and lens with alcohol, anything to
stong will dull the lenses,reaplied clear silcone let set for a day if you
can before installing. dont want to apply pressure on it before its thourally dry. if you dont do the whole lens youll be fixing it over and over and over and over get the point.till it looks like crap
