They F'in Got Me....

Guys I am sorry but went outside my house today and my diamond cut clear corner lights were ripped off my car while it was in my drive way. I live in Matawan N.J. Monmouth County... Its a nice friggin place and I woke up to this... It blows... I sold my orange ones so I cant even put them back on. I need to go and re-order them ASAP...

Well thanks for letting me vent...

Speaking of Oprah, what happened to your RSX, if you don't mind me asking?

Jeremy, I'm sorry about your corner lights. Did they leave the bulbs and harnesses? Most of the time they don't.

I know the feeling. I walked away from my car for 5 min and came back to hanging bulbs. Luckily, I still had my ambers.

Protect You Investment

Use some sort of cement glue or epoxy (sp?) where the two pieces of your diamond cuts meet and put them on. If a bulb goes out, your going to have to change it by going under the car...but you'll still have diamond cuts.

thats f'in ridiculous, i'd rather be pulled over by a cop and have gotten a ticket for no front turn signals then to pay that price, damn.. i paid like 26$ brand new for my DC clears, you shoulda bought them and then paid for overnight shipping, your price would have at least been cut in half.

Under the seat? that's a no-no. If you have a 4th gen, next to your left foot in the drivers seat you'll see a plastic piece that comes up from the floor and wraps around the side a bit.. Well this has to be my favorite mod, I loosened a couple little push/pull screws and now I have my little coke spot.. lol, no i don't do coke, but it's my most useful mod and I use for my little friend, the cops can't find, they would be too lazy to get under the dash and look around to see if any parts of my car are loose. I'll take pics sometime, but you wouldn't even know it was loose by looking at it, because it kinda pulls foward, you can stash whatever your likeing is and then wham! it snaps back into place. Ah, so cleaver.

Remember to bolt your replacement sets on from behind when you get them.

Hey I installed my clears and I saw those directions about how to bolt them in from behind but it didnt make all that much sense to me. IF anyone has bolted theirs in from the back could you please tell me how you did it?
thanks

The POS Sarona front bumper design caused my clears to fall off (ghetto) so I had to have my clears bolted on with a power drill.

i got the clears for $80 when i first got my car.. that was 3 years ago.. 109.99 is insane.. did they know u needed it right away?? might have inflated the price to take advantage of u..

Actually a few years ago my dad got the headlamp stolen out of his LandCruiser. Ironically enough, it was the same headlamp my brother had put a AAA sticker on and he knew that. When he went to the local auto chop shop to find a replacement, he saw it. He punched that guy so hard in the face he musta been blue for a week.

The only sketchy thing about doing that is that some thieves will get mad at the fact that they can't get what they are trying to get, so they will brake, scratch or steal something else. Happened to my friends Max, they broke his window and coudlnt get his cd player out, so they just took the face plate to be even more annoying. So he had to get a new cd player all together.
