ProCarParts Diamond Cut Corners

So im about to order the Diamond Cut Corners and turn signals. The whole kit for about 60 bucks which is pretty cheap. And I know you should spray these with some silicone before mounting to avoid condensation. But has anyone got these before? Are they decent quality? Also is there a coupon code for this website? thanks

You don't hit them with silicone spray. You need to use silicone caulk to make sure the joint between the clear lens and the reflector is sealed.

That alone shows how shoddy a product it is and that it should not be considered for purchase.

i bought the diamond cut signals from PCP...never had a problem with them except someone stole them in school....but they seem to be cut smaller than the customenterprise...i ordered my GEN II altazzas from PCP when it first came out. Now its in the third winter. Recently have a very little condensation in a really big rain storm but no leak at all.

I thought $60 for both the Corner and the Signal was a decent deal. Most ebay places are only selling the signals. I know im gonna have to seal them myself..im willing to pay a lower price to do that

I got the front diamond cut clear corners and my Gen II's from ProCarParts. Fit great, absolutely no problems with fitment and/or condensation and I didn't even silicone them.

I've also bought indiglo gauges from them for two other cars and no problems there either.

I did buy all the stuff through eBay though, not directly through their website. They regularly auction stuff on eBay for much cheaper then their own website prices. I guess to attract new customers or something.

I got the ones from ProCarparts.com when they first came out. I think I was one of the very first to put them on my car as there was a big thread here back in July and August. So far, no problems at all and I didn't do a thing to them besides bolt them on.

You can have clear corners in NJ just make sure you use a orange bulb instead of clear.

^^^ i have had my clear corners for over a year and have had no problems. just make sure you have the amber or yellow bulbs in and you will be fine. anything else will attract the cops, trust me i know i have had many friends who have fallen into that trap. also i recomend the customenterprise clear corners, they are an ok price and are a good quality clear corner.
