I am finally going to pull the trigger on clear corners.
Where is the best place to get true oem replacements?
I have seen the ebay crap and they are not flush with the bumper/fender.

Thanks guys.
I just ordered some black strakes from rx8strakes.com so maybe I will get the clear corners there also.

I got mine from ebay. As far as I know, there are no non-OEM clear corners. They stick out from the car for a reason, they are side repeaters in non-US markets (not simply a marker light) and have to be seen from a rear 3/4 position. This is also the reason there is a small reflector inside that most of us remove.

Again, I want to clarify that there are no cheap knock-off clear corners out there for the 8, so no matter where you get them, you'll be getting an OEM part. I have been on this forum for years and have an interest in lighting mods and I frequent ebay. I just don't think there's a market for the cheapo corners, the OEM parts are too readily available and not that expensive. Also notice that there are no aftermarket companies making headlights, taillights, 3rd brake lights, or any other lights for the RX-8 (I know rx8strakes makes an LED 3rd brake kit, but it's a DIY not a fully made housing, clearcorners.com also modifies OEM parts to add LEDs and sells them at incredibly high prices, those are the exceptions). If you want clear corners, look around for the cheapest ones and buy them. They will be OEM. Some places include the harness and bulb, I think that's about the only difference you'll see.

Ebay clear corners are US$79.99 + $20.00 postage; that's just under a C-note
$66.15 on our site with $13.00 priority postage, and we'll give you 10% off the Parts pricing as an RX-8 member which makes the total around $72.00...
