You need to realize that not all clear sides are created equal. If they leak like most I've heard of on ebay you've wasted your $$ along with the bulbs need to be amber or you could get a violation....just something to think about! Is it still a "Good Deal?"

This^ spend the extra and get the legitimate clear corners. The bulbs that they come with look exactly like the ones that you can get off of dealextreme for like $3 a pair.

It's a good deal if you want to mod the signals like I have. To mod them you have to rip them open anyway, then re-seal them yourself afterwords. No leaks.

I'd rather pay $12 for a set of corners to modify, then $40 to break apart OEM equipment.

I bought those exact ones last week and I love them. They look just as good as the expensive ones IMO. As for longevity, I can't comment yet. They do, however, seem like they are crafted just as well as the oem corners.
