you mean 95/96?

I think it looks better if you DIY anyway - unless the housings are REAL fogged up theres no reason to spend $100+

Just throw those bad boys in the oven for about 15 min at 250 to 300 and them bam!! they will just come right apart, YOu might need to keep them in a little longer or shorter depending on how good your oven is, and dont forget they will be hot so wear gloves. And use a flat tip screwdriver to wedge them apart. And then to put them back to gether, just throw all the parts in the oven again and then once the sealant around the housing gets squishy ( and yes thats a technical term) just slap them back to gether and let them cool. it might help to wrap duct tape around the housing and lense while they cool to make sure they stay nice and tight and that way you will have a good seal.

Hope that helps.

You are kidding right? These are almost necessary for a 95-96, and a nice upgrade for 97-99. I do agree they would look a little better if they had the part next to the grill painted as well. I think the corners look great. I have sylvania silverstar turn signals in the cornering lamps, and they look great.

Two things I HATE..... foggy headlights and dull taillights. The foggy headlights are taken care of, and I have the VII (the second batch) taillights from CE coming. I hate rice........ unless it is chicken fried rice!! Or ham fried rice!!
