Were the clear corners for a ti? If they were for just an e36 2dr i don't think they would fit,that would explain the gap. Someone correct me if i'm wrong.

I don't think you will have much luck selling clear corners that don't fit a ti on this site. Considering it is a website for 318ti owners.

I'm trying to clear an issue up, before ordering these lights. I bought a set of clear corners and side markers from a guy on this site (m44ic). Neither the clear corners OR the side markers were correct. The clear corners didn't fit, and the side markers were the older style pre 1997 year 318ti cars.

My question is, did they change the design of the clear corners through the years of the 318ti, or did this guy try to sell me the wrong lights? The side markers were for a 318ti, but the wrong year. Since neither set fit, I'm wondering what the story was on the clear corners. I'm gonna get the side markers from BMP Designs, just want some clarity on the clear corners before ordering.

Thanks
Eric

I don't think that the person in that conversation is the one who sold me these lights. Anyway, I got my money back on them.

Care to answer the question, or just amuse yourself?

L8; m44ic has a convertible, which shares the same front end as a 2-door. so that might have been your issue.

otherwise, there is no change from 92-98 for the sedan / ti for the corner lights.

I guess the "IC" in m44ic should have rung a bell. OK, so now I have that issue cleared up. I checked BMP design for the clear side markers, they have German OEM markers for $19.995 each. Seems like a good price. The problem is the link to the clear corners is very vague, the picture shows a complete set of lights for a car, not the ones they are claiming this item is.

Look at the picture, you decide.

The side markers are a good price (each).

Default Check headlight housing

I had the same problem. On the top of the headlight housing are three (3) screws; two for headlight adjustment and one (1) on each respective corners (far left and far right) are for housing adjustment. If you tighten the these corner ones they will tighten to the body. After that you will have to adjust the headlight aim using the other screws. Hope this helps.
