Headlight corner lens triangle prices?

[stateofidleness]

When did these things skyrocket in price? Single one is over $50 now! I remember when these were sub $20. Did I miss something? Anyone have a condensation-free driver's side triangle lying around?

The grey/smoked type have been $100-$120 per set for many years. I don't know of any low cost sources.

compared to the "Bugcatchers "....and less likely to fall out

Google is your friend for finding those at a good price. I found my clear for $50 a pair at partsgeek.

I found a set of clear corners on Ebay about 4 years ago. The seller was in Latvia. I think the price was in the $45 range with shipping. For what it's worth, Latvian customer service and pricing are top notch - almost as good as Woody.

Second on the Latvia source, I got a pair in June for $55. Seller on EBay is OE245. item # 19048

Dang even the Latvian seller is $120 a pair! https://www.ebay.com/sch/Lighting-Lamps/33707/i.html?_sofindtype=0&_from=R40&_byseller=1&_nkw=corner+lens+boxster&_in_kw=1&_ex_kw=&_sacat=33707&_udlo=&_udhi=&_ftrt=901&_ftrv=1&_sabdlo=&_sabdhi=&_samilow=&_samihi=&_sadis=15&_stpos=78133-2970&_sargn=-1%26saslc%3D1&_salic=1&_fss=1&_fsradio=%26LH_SpecificSeller%3D1&_saslop=1&_sasl=OE245&_sop=15&_dmd=1&_ipg=200&_fosrp=1


Seems backward too.. I need the amber ones (2000 base model), and the clears seem cheaper. Typically, it's the "Clear" stuff that's more as it's viewed as an 'Upgrade'.



Time to whip out the ol' hair dryer i suppose! Only trying to get rid of condensation because I keep getting jerks at the inspection places wanting to not pass me because of the few bubbles behind the lens!

Proving I'm not crazy! Multiple folks posted what they have spent recently, and it's like half of what I'm finding the prices to be online currently.

I just checked and I still have my original orange corners. I've attached a photo of the back of the drivers side. Its got a couple of broken tabs, but it is dry inside. Your welcome to it for the cost of postage. I think its about $6/7 for a small priority mail box.

Cool man! I'm going to try to dry mine out possibly this weekend and see if there's a way i can re-seal it. If I fail miserably, I may take you up on that! cheers!

Just bought a pair $88.00. From Latvia fit perfect.

I'd like them if the OP doesn't!

[Geof3]

Yeah... they aren’t exactly cheap... I am going to do mine eventually.
