Is there such a thing? Has anyone had good luck with theirs not yellowing. And if so where and/or what type are they.
Thanks,

First - before someone else tells ya - Search - you'll find tons of info on it.

It's hit-or-miss with the clears - but according to this http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=120690 - it's more hit than miss.

I've had 3 pairs over the past 2 years (each time from different sellers). Others have had theirs for much longer with no yellowing. They're all pretty much made at the same place, so it depends on the "batch" that they came out of, and you wouldn't know that if/untill they fail.

My advice, buy the cheapest eBay set, that way if you need'em again in a year you won't have wasted that much (ProCarParts are reputable sellers and a bunch of members have had good experience with them). If you DO decide to spend $60-90 on them instead of the $30 on eBay, keep us posted on how they hold up.
 






I have searched. And wouldn't have posted if I found what I was looking for.
No one has found non-yellowing clear corners?! I can not believe a good company isn't out there that makes them. A lot of times after market parts are better, guess not with these.
 






People in the past have said that clear corners from Clearlights.com don't yellow as fast. I don't know if thats true or a coincidence but Ive heard that a lot. It does seem like its all luck, some have had them for 4 years, some 6 months. I bought mine at Ebay in January '04 and they are somewhat yellow but nothing too major.
 






you can make the Ford OEM corner lights clear.
I did it on mine and they look TONS better than any after market, and no yellow :)

Some one has a write up some where around here.
