Lol... I am now an official 202 modder - today my bosche OEM corner just fell out of my car on the freeway somewhere! Some 18 wheeler probably crunched it. I just got back from lunch & saw a bulb dangling on my frontend. Sucks

Last week I decided to go back w/ amber signals. Well , now I have no choice but to go back to my clears!

Moral of this true life story is be carefull installing your corners!

I agree, you have to make sure they click into place. Just make sure there tightly secured before you drive off or they will end up flying out.

Those smoked look kinda cool. I'd be interested in seeing/ hearing if anybody were to buy them.

On another note does anybody have smoked tails on their car. I have seen them, but not on a car from a member of any forum, nor have I heard anything about them.

I current have smoked corners that look like the first set on the left installed on my car.

Smoked corners look fine from the side, but from the front, they look awkward to me, unless you have smoked headlights as well. I will be taking mine off when I get a pair of bosch clears.

I'm going to get some smoked euro heads and corners for my Silver C36.

Right now the best hookup I have is for $325.00 shipped. That includes a pair of smoked euro glass headlights, smoked glass corner lights, and 2 - 5-pin connectors. I'm not sure who these are made by, I'm hoping they're Bosch, but I'll find out soon.

Found this link. Click me (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33710&item=2442585660)

I'd ask the seller if the lights are smoked. If they are, they probably look like my lights:

It's really hard to tell, but if you look close the corners are much "whiter" than the actual headlights.

Ok guys, they're made by Depo. I don't know exactly what this means, but I did a search on bnzsport for depo and found some info. Some people like em' and some people don't. What a shocker, anyways, all I care about is whether they fit like an OEM light or not.

I dont think anything is as good a fit as OEM.

Supposedly these are Depo's from Italy, so maybe there higher quality, they're made of glass not plastic.

I was under the impression that all corners were plastic.
