Personally, I would of gone with the normal clear corners rather than the crystal clear ones like you got for you car. Post pictures on how they look nonetheless!
Anyways, It's the easiest thing to change on your car.
- pop the hood (obviously)
- there will be one clamp on the corner light that holds it to the car.
- push down on it and it will pop out, but be sure you are pushing it out of the car.
- connect everything and pop it back it but be sure the the corner light is clamped into place or it'll pop out when you drive.

Just looks. I think the frosted clearn corners would look better on your car. But it's your car so my opinion shouldn't change what you like.
You don't need any other parts to connect the corner lights. How much are they on ebay right now?

Looks
hey man what i care is about looks and if u think normal clear ones look better then perhaps i shall take it into consideration on the fact that i dont know much about cars. On ebay the one i bidded on costs $31.67 total price. Perhaps you could give me a link to the clear ones because i didnt no that these were crystal as it was never stated. ^^
P.S You are a very helpful person, i appreciate that

Looking at the pictures of Zorro's car now, they look like the frosted ones. Try to check ebay for those because those will definitely look better on your car than the crystal clear.
you should look foward to paying around 30-60 for a set. If you can't find them on ebay, check this website.

welcome for the help.

that would be a awesome package to buy if you have the money right now to do so. It has everything you need for the install.
The install is very easy, I'm pretty positive you can do it yourself. Worst case scenario, I'll help you like I had to help Freddy install his corner lights. HAHA

Get the entire euro lense/corner set. It will be cheaper in the long run and look better. Don't be fooled by those clear crystal headlights either. Those are made w/ cheap plastic (not like the glass euro headlights).

for aftermarket installs of corner lights.
MAKE SURE YOU TUG AND PULL ON THEM TO CONFIRM THEY HAVE LATCHED. i say this because i have lost a complete set of the importvision ones. they dont fit perfectly. they need to be modded a tad bit.

What about for a 400e?
I tried changing mine today and there is no visible path to the clips. Intake in the way, headlights in the way.......what's the catch? Do I have to remove all the intake plumbing and headlights to swap corners on this car?

If you remove the intake tube and the plastic intake piece on the back of the headlights, you will see the clips. No tools required. Pull off the flexible tubes, and pull upwards on the piece behind the lights. Couldn't be easier.
