clear corners...

Where do you guys buy your clear corners from? All suggestions would be nice. I wanna know how much aftermarket would be and have heard that there are OEM clear corners too. Thanks!

I got mine from Mazdatrix's and then put Xenon blue lights in them.

The Blue Xenon actually burn "hyper white". I am not sure of Virginia, but here in Illinois, white on the side is a no no. However, I have seen what I think was a Cadilac that had side lights that were white. I went with an amber LED for my clear corners.

I Got mine on e-bay for $70USD delivered.

The clear corners seem to be available on e-bay all the time.

I bought amber lights at the local auto parts store.

I'm very happy with the results.

Canzoomer has good prices on them and they are the full harness with bulbs and all.

Just getting them to actually ship the (correct) units out tends to be a long *** wait.

cool, thanks for the replies everyone. i'm probably gonna order them today. why are the clears so much more expensive than other cars? usually they fun like $20-$30 max for other cars. seems like the prices are around $70 for the 8's.

Nah...JTimports.com has them for 56 bucks shipped, if you don't care about the harness or bulbs.

I was at Mazdatrix today (3/8/04). They are sold out of the clear corners and do not know when the next shipment will arrive. Just an FYI.

Refer to (625 ILCS 5/12-201) Sec. 12-201. [paragraph] (b) which states
in part:

"...motor vehicles shall exhibit at least 2 lighted head
lamps, with at least one on each side of the front of the vehicle,
which
satisfy United States Department of Transportation requirements,
showing
white lights, including that emitted by high intensity discharge
(HID)
lamps, or lights of a yellow or amber tint..."

Therefore, as the statute reads, white, yellow or amber lights (fog
lights or any other auxillary lights) are permissible, but other
lights, such as the blue ones you suggested (or any other color for
that matter), are prohibited.

I've got white.. and its alright...:D

but like he stated, the blues actually turn "hyper white" which are a blue-ish white. just like the Xenon headlamps that come stock with the car no?

should be ok unless you get a real jerk cop...even then you may be able to fight it.
