I've finally decided to buy the front clear turn signal and sidemarkers. Where can I get the best deal? or Who ships the fastest? I will pay a little more for faster shipping.

Thanks

there are many car performance site that sell them.. you can buy them from courtesy nissan also.. will be about 45.00.. if pricing is what you want to keep low buy them from ebay.. there can find them really cheap there.
What year is your max???
if its a 97+ i highly recommend you get the diamond cut one from ebay.. don't pay over 55.00.. they will be at you door in like 3 days..

Thanks wicked, Courtesy was my 1st choice but didn't I read in a thread that the diamond cut clears were not any better than the garden variety that everyone else sells? I could be wrong on this one.

not a lot of people here have them because they have the older design or a 95-96 max.
i have had two sets of the older ones ann now the diamond cuts ones.. on your 98 you will be happier with the diamond cut ones.....

You need to consider quality

I had the "diamond cut" ones from EBAY and they seperated once and filled with water. I drained them and put them back together. Everything was fine and then a rock broke one of them. I bought the Courtesy ones and they are a lot thicker plastic and seem better quality. Also, the diamond ones don't look stock. If you want attention drawn to your turn signals, get the diamonds. If you want them to look stock, get the Courtesy.

Thanks for the info, I didn't consider that. I don't think i'll win the aution on the diamond cut clears anyway. Some guy is beating me by a $1 every time I change my bid. We are around $50 already so I think he can have those

IT IS A SCAM

Yeah, I had that happen to me. The company will have a few guys bid against you to drive the price up. If they end up winning, they don't care because they work for the damn company! WATCH OUT!

Seems the diamond clears are going down in price since they came out, that's always a good thing. No more outrageous $100 price tags.

Am I reading that wrong or are you saying the diamond cut lights don't work on a 95? They're selling diamond cut on ebay as working on 95-99.

Is there some difference between the 95-96 and the later years that will make them look bad if you put 'em on a 95? I'd love to see the difference up close and personal, but I've yet to see a Max in this town with clears... as far as that goes, I think mine is one of very few with aftermarket wheels.

Which do you recommend for a 95 GXE?

they will fit on any 95-99 max.. the 95-96 maxs have glass headlights that will match the look of the regular clears. the 97-99 headlights are very clear looking and will match better.. the diamond lights will look good on at 4th gen max, but i recommend them on a 97+ max..

If anyone out there knows where I can get a set for my '96, LMK. I've been trying on Ebay for weeks and can't get em.
I guess I need to try Courtesy.
