You can either visit www.custommaxima.com or go on ebay and find some cheap ones there... there are diamond cut clears and regular clears... I like the diamond cut better...

thanks, the clears at custommaxima.com look like they are of much higher quality than what I have seen on eBay (cheap and cloudy?). I think I will pay the extra $15 at CustomMaxima and get those....thanks

I bought mine from www.custommaxima.com and I was not impressed with the quality. When I called them to complain, they said they all come from the same factory in Taiwan, and the quality is not good. They sent me a second set and the quality on those was even worse. Now they won't return my calls...

There has to be someone better.

What was wrong with them? Are the ones you ordered the same ones that they have on their website currently? On the website, they make it sound like the diamond cut are newer, better versions.

My advice would be to go to a local performance shop and have them order the lights for you. I got my perfect diamond cut clear lenses from Import Direct here for 35 dollars.

I don't have clears yet but I think if I remember right from a thread a long time ago they're all or almost all made by the same company. I could be wrong though. I also think the general consensus was that www.procarparts.com was the best place to get them. procarparts also has them on ebay. Hope that helps a little. Maybe somebody else can tell you if this is right.

I've dealt with procarparts.com over several items. Good quality and customer service. Two thumbs up.

The reflector inside one of the lights was warped. The other 3 were perfect. They sent me another set, and the same light was warped. Also, on the second set, one of the lenses never got installed properly at the factory. It sticks out on the edge and looks like it will leak. These were ordered/received in the last few weeks.
