What about putting the stock corner lights on?

I think that would look better than the aftermarket ones.

update: these are made for a 93-94 LS which takes a 9003 bulb, 90-92 takes a 9004...so my hids are 9004, i removed them completely, put the light bulbs that came with them back in, bought some 9003 sockets, got some spade connectors ground them down to fit in the 9004 sockets that are stock, butt connected wires comming out of them and connected the 9003 sockets and plugged in the lights.....i will have pics tonight of the lighting pattern

Looks nice but how do the stock corners look with that? Anyone know if the stock corners can be smoothed out or are they glass also? No night shots yet? How did the HID's look?

They are plastic. In theory, they can be smoothed out.

Or now that I think of it...why not just swap the lens from the aftermarket corners onto the stock ones? A de-lined corner would probably match that set-up pretty well. Only if I had enough money to try it

the discounts from what i've heard where only around $100 or so.

especially on the LS coils, didnt go under ~$700.
