Default autodynamic jdm amber corner lenses? Cheap or quality?

Ok, so I just picked up my new project- a '92 cx hatch I wanted to order the vision amber corner lenses but jdmhondaparts wants $180! That ****'s crazy! So I found fake ones at autodynamic.com I am wondering if they are ghetto.... Does water get past the seals, fitment etc. If I have to, I guess I will buy the vision ones but that **** is way too expensive for some corner lenses! Thanks

you could just seal em up real good w/ silicone sealant before you put them on, and save a **** load of cash.

you could probably get the real Vision Corners on ebay for pretty cheap.

I've had a set of the "fakes" on for a while now...As far as fitment, perfect. As far as water leaking insinde...Not any that I can find. Don't waste over $50 bucks on anything that is simply just a corner light.

Spend the money on whatever fits your budget. I have had no problems with fakes at all in my past. Then again, I dont understand all these people who dog on fakes because they ASSUME it leaks. Ive had PLENTY of OEM corners and bumpers that leak.

I got mine from autodynamic a few weeks ago, fitment is great. They look good. Do what you want, and like so many said before, they're just corner lenses!
