I recently installed clear corners on my 97 gxe. They look great, but I have a problem. The two pieces that just snap in are not holding very well. The left one actually came out, the right one hasn't but it's not as snug as I would like it to be. What can I do to fix this? I got them from custommaxima.com.

Can I get those little plastic things that they snap into somewhere and perhaps get something a bit smaller so they hold? What's my options. I know duct tape would fix it but that would look kinda bad :P

 

Since i have the sarrona body kit i had the same problem we put some kind of glue and tape on top over night it glued on and no problems now took the tape of next morning

 

get some washers and place them behind the bumper onto the bubs on teh larger piece of the clear corner, that will hold them in securely

 

Grrr, I wanted to avoid glue. Not sure what kind of glue would work good...I have some really good stuff but it eats plastic hehe. I suppose I will have to go pick up some epoxy.

 

huh? sorry that doesn't make sense. The larger piece is on fine, secured by a screw.

 

yea i used epoxy i forgot lol

 

Only problem with that is getting them out again to change the light. Oh well, I suppose that light should last a very long time.

 

Go to nissan and order the white plastic that goes into the bumber that holds the the smaller light on the bumber. the one you have its probebly shot. and if u using the one that came with the lights when you bought it change them. because they not good.

 

Yea i wanted to change the lights to blue couldnt get it out and didnt wanna scratch the bumper (fiberglass sux!)

 

I just pushed mine in really hard and after a couple of times of doing that they've stayed in ever since.

 

lol i just imagined doing that to my bumper hehe

 

ARGH. Well I got the part from Nissan, but that doesn't fix the problem. Still loose. Guess I'll have to glue it...grrr.

 

Don't glue it...take out the existing stud from the back of the lense and remove the white piece from the hole as well. Get a screw(forgot the size), but one that will fit into the hole that you took the stud out of. Also get a washer and screw it in from behind. I did this and I haven't had a problem w/it since. If it is hard to picture all this email me and I will take pics and email them to you...

 

Didn't know those studs could be removed on these. Would the stud from the old orange lense fit? It may work.

 

this is why we need search function. im sure the answer is out there for him, plenty of times.
we cant even tell people to search anymore

put a bit of silicone or something in the nub socket and maybe itll hold tight

 

Yea the studs can be removed, just use some pliers and some effort...i'm not sure if the OE studs will fit...i guess it should but the screw works really well...
