Default clear Chevy head lights? 00-07

So a few month ago i got a wild hard and bought some head lights off ebay. They where "crystal clear with black housing" looked freaking mean. put them was happy as a can be. Drove down the road, both of the brackets broken when i hit a pot hole. Sent me into pissed of rage lke you have never seen.

So i sent them back... a month later i get a "replacement" pair. In the mean time it has rained and guess what, the parking lights fill up with water Those are broken in the box. Same exact spot. I sent them back as well. Here is what they looked like....





Anyway giving up on the $35.00 e bay lights i took the plung and paid $149.95
for this set on LMC's web page..

http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/ce/full.aspx?Page=32

you will notice it says " These are designed to OE specifications" So i was like well maybe they are good lights. Ill give them a shot. Ordered some on saturday.. They came in today. I open the box and guess what... same crap i got off e bay last month. Just $114 more! One light was broken the other not. I decided to see if they fit any better.. Nope. the light that was not broken, was the passanger side. I slid it in, and tried to adjust it. No go. The "studs" that move to adjust the light, Hits the factory air box... So if you want to use these lights dont plan on driving in the dark because the light shine up in the sky.....

Well with my rant over.... anyway know where i can ge some "real" Clear Gm lights for a 00-02 silverado, or a 00-07 "classic" suburban.

Do them your self, do a search, a few guys have done them here. Sorry bout your luck. Thats why I try to keep it all OEM on my truck, stay the hell away from the ebay things. I would call them and raise hell, let them know you want a refund..

Do you guys a have a link. I just want stock looking lights just with the clear lenz.

i googled that anzo.... they have the ights but they look the exact same as the other two pairs... wonder if there is a way to tell the difference in them http://www.anzousa.com/mmproducts/he...vy/111011.html

I called LMC today guy was an ***.

me: Hi the is shawn, i oreded parts on saturday off line, I installed the passanger light and it fits but you cant adjust it. it hits the air box. When i opend the second box the light was broken.

Guy: Read the return label on the box

Me: I dont have that infromt of me. So i dont need any special numbers or anything.

Guy: NO

Me: Ok so when you receve the lights can i just get a credit on my credit card. These lights are not of good quality, to be honest with you i got the same lights off ebay a month ago. They came in the same box, even had the same "paper" with them... but i only paid $34.50 for them...

Guy: Read the paper. CLICK...

So i guess Gold old LMC can spend them money on advertising but cant hire anyone or sale quality parts...

On a side note the Hi voltage kit worked, even thought its in japanese, as well as the hi low beam kit....
