Question Those with clear corners.

What's the best type (quality) to go with? I found the below after some
searching and wonder what others have used on their rides. I bought some
for my VW and I never put them on as it was cheapo. These look good. What
do you think?





Clear corners

Never tried cyrstal clears

I've never tried the crystal clears, as I tihnkn they don't look as good with the stock headlamp. I'd go with bekkers (more $, but perfect fit) )or www.autodynamic.com (very good fit if you phanagle it for a bit). I have bought from autodynamic twice- can't beat their price- $50 (which includes shipping) -sholly

I think they were $139 shipped. They are the real thing and I don't mind
paying for quality. I'm still searching for an OEM flat hood emblem..... I found
one one ebay but I'm not feelin the plastic.

It's the S600 from M EuroParts on ebay. I added the Bekker clear corners this
afternoon and while they're not stamped with the MB logo, they are identical to
the OEM ones (just don't have the MB stamp on it). All letters and numbers are
the same. Plus, the fitting is excellent (both snapped into place).

The clear corners from Bekkers are plug and play. The grill was pretty
much the same but required some additional time.
