I just bought a 99 SE 5 Speed. I noticed that some poeple were able to change those ugly orange front bumper lights to clear ones. I want to do the tail lights too but I don't really have the faith in myself right now so maybe down the road I'll do those. But as far as the front bumper one's go I have a few questions.

1. Where is the best place to buy them? I did see some on ebay but are they any good? Can anyone recommed a good place to buy them or are they all the same quality?

2. Is it difficult to find orange bulbs that size to go with the clear lenses?

3. How hard are they to install? This actually my biggest concern.

Thanks in advance for any help.

 

1. How much you wanna spend? Do you want Diamond Cut Clear corners then go to CustomMaxima.com there more expensive, if you want clear but not as much expensive go with ebay

2.No i would check at auto zone. but i tink you can have white tickers...most people here do...

3.you pull out the old bumpers and swap the houseing not the bulbs.

 

I just ordered a new set of diamond cut clears from procarparts.
They were $45 bucks shipped.

 

2. I got mine on eBay and they came with orange bulbs. If you need to replace them it will not be hard.

 

I got mine off of ebay from procaroparts 29.95 shipped for dc

 

Do they just pry out or are there screws holding them in behind the bumper?

I'll have to look into those. How is the quality?
Also do the diamond cut one's really look that much better than just clear one's?

 

The bulbs are connect to a harness and the harnesses screw into the clear corner housing. Once you start to take off your stock corners it is very easy to understand.

Quality is excellent. I bought mine (Diamond Cut) from the same seller and I haven't had any problems with them for the last 3-4 months. They don't seem to leak and they fit pretty good into the bumper.

Yes, get Diamond Cut.

 

yes, it is very easy to install... Get the Diamond Cut only as they look the best and often the others get clouded up...

 

i had them on my last max from procarparts and they were good quality i just brought these through the same people so im expecting same thing.

 

i got my clear corners from custom enterprise. i forget the price though. the clear tailights i got from ebay. i paid 180.00 plus shipping. they were def. worth it. just don't use the orange bulbs.i use the hyper white bulbs from like auto-zone or pepboys. but that is your preference.

 

seriously- you're worried about how hard clear bumpers are? if you can't handle this one, even the "matching tails" then you need to find a new hobby. this has got to be easiest mod i've ever done. my first time i think it took 3 minutes. for everything. as far as bulbs- i suggest you get chrome bulbs, off eBay or where ever, that light up orange. that way they look hella clean when they're off, no faded orange color, then bright as a mu'fuka when they're on. this is what i have and im very pleased. and for pricing, i did procarparts for 40$ shipped. it worth it to go a lil extra and get the dc (diamond cut) clears
