i have the ebay cheapos from the time a had a front end collision and they are not as bad as i thought they would. the only problem is that you have to watch out for the rubber lining in the sides tends to come off somehow.

No it's supposed to be "JDM" like the e36 headlights.

My ebay ones fit fine, and I got them from Symmic. The quality of the plastic is absolute garbage compared to the oem corners. Still, they work just fine.

I purchased some clears a while back off of ebay and they worked perfectly! I would say just check the feedback of whoever you are buying them from.

I got mines from the sam person. It was ok, the interior fitment for the bulbs was a minor issue, was not quiet there, no condensation yet. I have washed my max about 5 times already with them on. Symmic is ok, better than others that I have gotten off ebay. But all and all it fit perfectly fine on mines. They are nice and clear, Not bad for 25 shipped.

Now I have to find some bright **** yellow bulbs. But the ones I want are clear out side and light up yellow when powered or on. I found some on ebay but they want toooooo much. 25 for a pair shipped wtf.

either that or leds lights in the front.

yeah...i got mine off ebay as well...and the lens started to pull away/ pop out from the black lining not to mention the condensation. There seems like there are soo many companys/ ebay sellers that have these. I'd too would like to find some a bit better in quality.

thanks for all the input, i think i can get a stock replacement from a local yard for $10..might just go that way just for the quick fix since my corner is currently being held on with white duct tape
