I got some knock-offs AMBER ones from someone on H-T here, and they fit like a goddess... My brother's fit flawlessly too... Mine is a 92 hatch and my brother's a 93 coupe... I noticed most people have trouble on alignment with the passenger side... But my brother and I never had that problem...

could you hook me up with the dealer??


ok the other prob is, the autozone ones fit amazing, like 89% stock. the problem is, i like the ones that do look stock, like with the stock retro reflective ridges molded behind the lens, not the ones that look like an orange aquirium. i dont knwo that just doesnt do it for me i need something that looks like it was factory.

appreciate the help my EG brothas.

Can the fitment problem be because you are not aligning the plastic tips of your corner lights into the whole on the fender?

I purcahsed a set of ambers off ebay a couple years ago that were really good fitment. Luckily the EG I have now came with ambers which are also a good fit. Pretty much a hit and miss when it comes to buying these type of things from ebay. I'd go to Pep Boys and grab a set. At least you could exchange them out for another set if they were not up to par

yes this problem could be due to me being a RWSD - retard with a screw driver but i made sure and it was the way they were molded, we had my hatch and a coupe sitting side by side and they wouldnt fit either, yet the autozones and stock ones fit both cars well. i mean they fit but there was a tremendous gap i cant have that ****.

i mean, i can see why it doesnt fit, it is the clip part that the male end on the car slides into, i know i could augment this with a razor or maybe some dremel skills, but the thing is these are my buddies he bougth off ebay, so its not like i was stuck with them so i am just like yeah i dont want them. i want to buy a pair that fits i am willing to spend extra money. because i have bought some off ebay that fit decently.

the autozone ones are on the right, thats not what i want. it is hard to tell from the picture the aquariumness of the lenses.
