Crystal clear corners have been available for a while (I've had them at least a year) and they don't fit very well, like just about every aftermarket clear corner. The Bekkers ones fit like OEM because they are OEM or are manufactured by the OEM manufacturer.

So I'd be better of purchasing corners form bekkers because they have a better fit right?

I can't tell you whether you would be better off, because that's up to you. I can tell you that the Bekker's ones (for the W202) will fit better. I can tell you that the crystal ones look different and that might be more important to some people. For me, the crystal ones never made it onto my car for more than 5 minutes for two reasons: 1) they didn't fit right 2) they were supposed to go with my clear lens headlights which I didn't finish before I sold the car.

scorchie, as always, a very knowledgeable post. I wonder just how much you know about Mercedes-Benz. Anyhow, I bought my regular clear corners form formymercedes... twice, since they were destroyed once in an accident, and they fit great both times. I can't comment on the crystal clear corners, but imo, they look worse unless you havbe the Euro cler headlight asy.

well i am sure about formymercedes and I am aware that they have been out for some time, yet I have been unable to find them, I had be a thread about them before, but I had no one reply, this has been the first site i have found with them and I am almost sure they will fit tightly, bekkers corners are nice, I have them myself, but cystal clear corners along with the euro set would look much better than what is on normally, well imo

I have used a Bosch and a brand name Gecar. I had great experiences with both. Gecar is made in Italy, they seem impossible to find. Anyone have picks of TWC or TYC its German too.
