These look pretty nice at a good price for the pair. My current aftermarket lights have the black rubber gasket that goes against the fender perished. Has anyone bought these and how do they look and perform.

just be aware that one piece lights are more difficult to both align to the body panel and to where the light should be. It takes a little time to get them right

I don't mind fussing with them several times as long as they work well and look good. I'll hold off for now until I see if anyone who actually bought these can comment. I like the look of the side lights not being Amber but clear. Just pop an Amber bulb in and you're good to go.

I run clear corners with a chrome bulb that lights up amber.
Just mentioning it as another alternative.

When I initially bought my car it had the one piece lights and I couldn’t get them adjusted. I tried but I couldn’t get them adjusted enough to get them properly aligned. I ended up buying new two piece and they aligned perfectly and with no issues.

I think some and maybe even a lot of the problems people have is that the front end might have had enough of a tap/ding/accident to knock it out of alignment to make it hard/impossible to line back up. These cars are not new anymore by any means.

The design is originally intended to be a two piece headlight. The main headlight adjust up and down, side to side while the quarters stay fixed. With a one piece the main headlight is limited to adjustment because it’s attached to the quarters which stay fixed because they are bolted down to the body.
