I have a 97 318ti and I am trying to buy some corner lights on ebay. Which are appropriate, the ones for the 2dr or 4dr e36. Your help is appreciated!

Are you buying clear corners or just the amber stock corners. If your looking for the amber, I have a pair. 4-door.

Hey does anyone know of clear lenses that are actually clear and not that white plastic look?

Dannyboy, Check out this site. Look for the clear corners there. I was just in there looking around, and I saw them. http://www.germanstuff4you.com/

4dr. should fit. IIRC our fenders are shorter and everything I've seen about this says go with the 4dr.

Sirius: I agree! I just don't care for the white lenses at all and the smoked lenses, well, it just looks like they are trying to cover something up....

Yea, my thoughts exactly. These almost look like the clear M5 corners.

You know if they sell High Impact Glass Fog Lights...kinda like how they sell the Euro Headlights? I think that may make a difference in brightness. Oh yah this is kinda funny...My Driver side fog lamp kept burning out so BMW center let my local mechanic replace it using the BMW warranty. Anyway he used a Hella Foglamp as the replacement and it lets so much more light through than the factory BMW lamps. I never really noticed it til' I upgraded to APC Super Whites. I think I may get another Hella Foglamp so they match(only like 20 bucks or something)

ddoria,

I have a 96 m-sport and and the Passenger side fog light is cracked so I need to replace it. Where can u find hella's for $20, everywhere I'm looking seems too high just for the stock ones.

Also, I just had to replace my clear corners becuase I got backed in to, so I ordered smoked and theyre on the way. I plan on replacing my clear side markers, putting smoked covers on all my lights, and hopefully replacing my stock tail lights soon. My ti is black and I think the black and smoked look awesome.

NickB: Maybe I was wrong about the price...Like I said it was covered under warranty, but I don't remeber the bill being that much...Let me check my records for part number and price...I should have it, I keep all my records. I think that the smoked lenses are definitley better than supposed clear lenses(they are white don't get tricked) there are some companies that sell real clear lenses with black inserts. Those are freakin awesome. I think Vertex racing sells em...Just check on ebay for e36 angel eyes and a slew of european kits will come up. Most of em' you can buy just the clear corner lenses, but it will give you a good idea of what they will look like.
