ya they did become dislodged quite a few times when I went over bumps. I figure thats probably what happened. I just went and bought new ones anyways

Thanks for your help!

I changed out my clears and while doing that I attempted to try different bulbs that came with the new ones I bought. That bulb didnt work so I figured the bulb was dead and put the stock one back in. Now it wont light up. All I did was I pulled it out of its socket (the bulb) and put it back in by just poping it into the socket. did i miss anything?

Sorry to bring this thread back from the dead, but I am experiencing the same problem. I ordered mine from here: http://www.courtesyparts.com/Merchan...de=B61F0-G35CP.

btw, directions are in Japanese so that didn't help.

Any solutions?

Not sure what is happening but have you check the obvious things like fuses etc? If you have a digital multimeter, make sure there is voltage being applied across the contacts.

what happened with mine is that the fitment was crap, they popped out and rubbed against my tires when I was driving which caused them to melt/become all jacked up. maybe its the same for you? I got another pair of decent clears and now I have had no problems at all

Edit: I am a noob. Ahero4eternity set me straight. Have a good Thanksgiving everyone (and thanks for your help too Hai/ Goon)!

I installed my clear corners this morning, didn't drive an inch with the new ones. Car was off and did the switch, how do I check fuses?
