Where did you get those? I bought a pair of clears like that but a lot was wrong with them, stripped screws, bad gasket, etc.

Matthew, I'm going to assume they were a rebuilt pair you got based on the messed up screws

I got mine from OEMassive on ebay here: 98 04 GMC Sonoma Jimmy Oldsmobile Bravada Headlights Left Right Headlamps | eBay

They are brand new as far as I can tell. Protective wrapping on them, temporary paper plugs to keep dust out and everything looks to be unused. Good quality from the initial handling of them. Granted I haven't had the chance to install them yet, but that will come

Hopefully those are what you're looking for; they are the "bubble" housings for the fog lamps, which seem to be the hard ones to find cleared out. Seems that the flat fog lamps are cleared more often or at least more readily available

Yes, I had similar ones with the fog lights as well. They came packaged EXTREMELY well, plastic film and sealed in expanding foam. Just cheap quality of the product in general from these guys Buy OEM Replacement Car Parts - Spyder Projector Headlights & LED Tail Lights from Movement Auto Retailers - Movement Auto
I hope you have better luck with yours!

Alright, well I'll keep ya'll posted. I have high hopes from my initial inspection, everything seems to be in order.

Not sure when they will get installed, probably same day as the grill (not here yet)

I like your concept of being ready for whatever whenever. Some nice little fixes and mods you got going!

I got another set of clear headlights, these ones mounted up great! The hood even closes this time!

Default Second Pair

This is the second pair that I got, they seem to work better than the first pair (the first pair had a broken mounting point and stripped beam adjusters). Sorry for the blurry picture but I managed to shatter the camera lens on my phone.
