Who manufactures Clear Corners?

What brand of clear corners does everyone have?? My cousin works at a shop and he could get me a set for relatively cheap if we find out the brand that makes them. I've been looking on the net and I can't even find em on eBay anymore. Also anyone from Canada that knows of any suppliers that carry them please let me know...

thanks people,
M

i'm pretty sure the company that made mine is called matrix or something. your best bet it to either check the black market or ebay. i tried getting them locally and had no success.

dunno the brand, but 25 bucks is pretty cheap to begin with... of course, if you can get em cheaper than that by all means go for it.

I just got my clears a few days ago and haven't had a chance to install them. No name brand on mine but its made in China. I bought mine on ebay and the funny thing is that the guy advertised that its DOT & SAE approved but when I got the box there was a sticker on the outside that said it wasn't. It doesnt matter to me since its going on anyways!!!!

You know... it really doesn't matter for a $25 set of corners. Just look on EBAY.

Got mine for $25 plus shipping. Put them on today and went looking for amber bulbs but could not find any that would fit the the turn signal. Its weird but the application books say that the 1997 turn signal for my car should have a round metalic base. When I pulled my bulb out it was the bayonet style similar to what the RL for the same year uses. Anyone else experience this?

Disregard, I did a search and found my answer. My previous searches didnt bring them up before. Ordered chrome ambers from cardomain.com. Got the titan apcs and they work well. Going to tint my clear bulbs with orange transparency marker (they're made to withstand the high heat) and use them for spares when the chromes blow.

Yeah, I got mine from the same guy. He's suppose to yank that ad that says its DOT\SAE approved but I see he hasnt yet. It doesnt matter to me cuz I wanted it anyway but don't think its cool to advertise falsely. He said it was a typo and they were getting it fixed. If he still has that ad up in a month I'm going to send ebay an email.

Other than that the outfit was cool to deal with.

What bulbs are you going to put in yours?? I picked up a few Titan APCs from cardomain.com. I'm going to color my clear ones with a transparency marker (they hold up to heat better) for spares.
