My clear corners dont fit...pics inside..help needed



I got them off ebay and I emailed the seller with the pics but he still stands by his product. Am I doing something wrong?

The pic is of the rear passenger side. One of the front clear corners went in with ease, and the other I could not get in b/c it needed EXTREME force and I did not want to mess anything up (esp. my paint). Any kind if help is appreciated. thanks

I guess you should just check the tabs for anything blocking it...

Take out the other one that went in fine and look for any differences.

I cannot remember, are they R&L specific?

Make sure they are not mixed up if they are.

yea I think thats the wrong side, if you simply flip them over it should fit on the other side.

hey guys...so me and my dad finally fixed the problem. We had to physically FILE the plastic on the insides to that they could fit...it took a long time.

In going to leave these people negative feedback on ebay..."plug and play"..yea right!

but they look sick now
