Corner lights

I am wanting to get clear corners for my car. The corners don't go in the bumper but next to the headlight. I want some that are clear when the turn signal is off and I don't want them to look ricer. Does anybody know where I can get some?

my left one is cracked and it just rained. There is a buch of water in it also. When I turn on my lights, it is yellow but when I turn on the blinker, it turns clear. How can I make it so it is always bright or where can I buy clear ones. And is there a difference between 95-96 and 97-99

there are none. it all depends on the bulb. many people on the org have hard time matchin the corner with the headlight (including myself). as alternative, some orgers went JDM sty-o (oranger corner) if you perfer.

good luck finding the corner lamp, if you do find one, let me know too

97-99's are clearer than 95/96's i believe. so, for 95/96 people, there's a step up atleast.

i saw once about 6 months ago a supposed aftermarket clearance light housing that was clearer than 97-99's, but don't remember where that was and haven't seen anyone else mention it. maybe it was one of those ads were a company mentions the product but doesn't actually carry it (or make) until they get enough demand.

no, the 97-99's lenses aren't clearer simply because they're newer. it's similar to their headlights. 95/96's are glass, 97-99's are plastic, and clearer. there clearance lights are also clearer than ours too.

I simply unplugged the corner light harness and took the bulb out. Then I stretched the turning signal harness from the bumper lights up to the corner light and made that blink. When I turn my headlights are on they are the only two lights that are on and makes it look 100x better. And when I signal my corner light blinks

clean, so your bumper lights do not do anything at all. Can you split the wires somehow so your bumper lights and corner lights blink?

why don't you just completely smoke out your bumper lights like mad dhan? would look really cool and make them not stand out. cleans up your front end nice too!

You could do that, but I wouldn't know where to start.

I'm just going to throw this out there as an thought. Find the fuse for the corner lights and remove it and put some wire taps on both the corner light harness and bumper light harness and match up the wires (thats the part I don't know) and then they should work just fine.

You should PM a couple of people that have done this. Araffio has done and I'm sure that thebigsadler has done it as well.
