I just bought a set of 4 clear corners from www.southwestautoworks.com im wondering if the 2 front clear corners are different from each other.... ALL of them went it perfectly fine except for the front left clear corner it wont go in at all. Anyone got any tips or suggestions? BTW whats the best looking bulb to put in the clear corners

 

Ok, what you want to do is compare the clear corner with your factory front pair and see the variance between the two. I dont know how it works with the 5th gen, but the 4th gen clear corners come with a different sized washer type thing where it secures tighter.

As far as bulbs, I would use the color which original was on the car ala orange for the fronts, red for the back(white bulb with red bulb condom)

 

when you say it wont go in at all do you mean the part that the bulbs fits in? I had that problem and the bulb socket wouldn't twist. looking closely inside the clear corner i noticed there was a tiny piece of plastic blocking the bulb. hope that helps.

 

nah like the whole clear corner just wont go in no matter what way u push it. All the other ones were easy plug and play this one just wont pop in no matter what i do to it.

 

The clear corners I picked up from CustomMaxima had the left and right side marked on the lens for the front and the back. Check to see if the lens is marked accordingly. If not, try switching the markers to the other side of the car.

 

hey, when you bought it from southwestauto, did it not come with the colored bulbs?

Thanks...

 

Get the chrome bulbs that blink orange..they work great, and look even better.

 

I had the same prob as gslik, but it was on one of my rear ones...

There could be various reason why. You could be missing a clip. But yes, the two fronts are different... You could try swapping them... The best bet is to make sure that any text you see on your side marker lights are facing right-side-up when you put it in... who knows, you could've gotten two right side-markers... ;P... you have any pics you could post? ... good luck dude!

 

i had the same problem today... it was dark so i couldnt see writing... i just swapped sides and they fit perfectly

 

meh.......southwest sent me 2 clear corners that whre the same. I called them and gave them pics.. they will be sending me a new set this week....grrrrrrrrrrrrrr mistakes are bad lol
