I've done both. If you don't want to mess with em, get em off www.procarparts.com for pretty cheap. At least, last time I checked. Honestly, it's easy to do, and looks good. I just bought aftermarket ones cause IW as a dumbass and forgot to put the screw back in one of them, and it fell out on the highway... Never saw that corner light again...

Bottom line is what light style would you prefer? All aftermarket clear corners have completely transparent lenses, while home-made clears will have the stripe patterned (not sure how else to describe that) lenses matching your headlights.

You should've been on eBaY a while back. A guy was selling once piece headlights AND JDM foglights that fit in the bumper (after some cutting) and it sold for about $400 shipped. I was bidding at the last minute trying to be the highest bidder and then the stupid computer decides it hates me and turns off 2 minutes before it ended. I didn't get the headlights

Ive had to replace my corner lights about 6 times. I keep losing them. I just replaced the driver side one a few weeks ago and lost it again. It flew right off and broke on the arm. I just got another pair of OEM corners off Ebay. I need a set of 1 piece lights.

you need to get the clips to hold the lights in from the dealership. One of mine is held in by a clip that came with my speakers. It is holding alright. The other one the clip came out and I was lucky to keep it as I watched it fly off as I was going down the road. Now I have one scratched ghetto ebay clear corner and another ghetto ebay clear corner. Stock are better.

yea, and I do have the clips. However on my driver side, it doesnt line up exact due to a front end collision I had in 2000. I dont think it was properly put in place. It doesnt look bad, it just doesnt like up right. I cant use screws. Instead I have zip ties holding it together. Tis quite ghetto.

My car was bought after being rebuilt from a front end collision. everything fits alright but my driver head light and aux light are about 1/2" off. It should be fixable. Bakeoff fixed his ask him.
