Looking For Clear Corners-Will any on ebay do?

Hey guys. One of my turn signals on my car is out so I figure now is as perfect time as ever to buy some clear corners to throw in instead. I'm looking on ebay and they're all about $40 total shipping included and they all seem pretty similar to me. Are they all ok buys or is any one better than another? Also, the lightbulbs come in the corners right because thats my whole problem. Sorry if these are newb q's but I haven't done much of anything with this car so I don't know a ton about it. thx

most any on ebay will work just make sure the seller has good feedback. They probably won't come with bulbs either. You'll have to go to auto zone or something to get bulbs.

just go in and tell them that you need a turning signal bulb for the front. They will give you the right one or should at least. And as for clears, get anyone of them but like kwelling said make sure they got good feedback. I got mine from makoto auto trens thats their full name their ebay user ID im not sure of.

You have to get the right fittiment... They have a spring that pushes out from the center back of the lamp and a screw on the inside center that locks it in place. Just pull your stock amber and look at the way it fits. The screw that locks it in place can be reached with a phillips from the inside of the lower air dam. And yeah, watch your seller on ebay. some of those dudes are stars and some are

Good luck

so go to autozone or advance, bring in the bulb, and replace it with either the stock type ( which are, by the way, white), or get orange ones like i did, the 5-0 wont notice

< one more fb for makoto -- 35 bucks shipped. Clear bulbs sharper looking, imho (tried both); and they appear to have a subtle yellow-ish hue contrasted with xenons.

At least get ambers for the turn signals, bulb 7440. You can get em at walmart, or I got chrome amber bulbs from cardomain's store. They are sweet.

I don't have any pics with the amber turn sigs on, here's my super white corners





I can take a pic of the chrome amber bulbs if you want. I got the Pilot Chrome Amber bulbs off of cardomain, they're about $10 a set.
