Who makes the Best clear corners?

I am not a newb.. really.

But anyway, the clears I have on my car now really suck. The have a very poor fitment, and seal on them. water always gets inside, and kills my bulbs. I just replaced all the bulbs again, and one of the clear corners broke in my hand, and the other fell right off my car when on the highway!

so yea... who makes the best? link? thanks, and sorry for the newb post.

you can buy them from anybody. I bought mine from www.Courtesyparts.com, but www.Custommaxima.com have them too. Remember that you have to seal them to prevent leaks and water condensation.......

Yeah, there really isn't any out there that are better than others....they are all mostly, cheaply made. When I bought mine from Ebay years ago, I put a bead a silcone on all of them before I even installed them on the car, just to be safe.

I got mine when Southwest (now SportCompactOnly) was still around. That was three years ago. I put on a coat of sealant where the lenses meets the housing so I don't get any leaks. The lenses fit like stock, doesn't move arond.

Hmmm, ok. thanks for the information. I could have sworn I saw a thread somewhere about some being better then others, but I guess not. I just bought the ones off ebay through the link provided. I will make sure I use some silicon to seel them before installation.

thanks again..
