I got mine at a DSCR BBQ back in 02. :lol:

I think I paid $60.00 bones to <_<

Mine are APC, they havent started fogging on me yet. Others say they can see condensation in them a little.

Performance Improvements should be able to get ya some.

I got mine from some site that sold ones that DIDN'T LEAK!

I can't remember the name for the life of me.

I remember them being super cheap. 12:00 or something crazy.

Apparently the ebay ones are actually good. Alot of members at FF have them. APC ones seem decent also, either way alot of them need to be resealed to keep the moisture out anyway. Nice cheap exterior mod.

I overpaid for APC lenses at a local speed shop and they leaked badly. I got some off ebay, sealed them with clear silcone before I installed them and they've been perfect ever since.

The APC lenses are way overpriced when you can get the same quality on ebay for under $20.

I dont think I did, it was quite a while ago though. If you cant find a Canadian seller on ebay, look for an American seller that will ship using USPS (not UPS or FedEx). You really have to watch out on ebay auctions for car stuff, they sometimes put the shipping price up really high to make up for their low auction selling price (it's a way they avoid paying ebay higher fees). Definitely email the seller and ask about Canadian shipping prices, and whether they'll ship it USPS before you bid.

The value of the item is fairly low so it should pass through customs without any fees, the worse you'll have is paying taxes (GST/PST) on the value and an extra $5 handling fee.

I got mine from the local speed shop. APC ones, I got ripped (paid like 90 bucks)

They leaked.

Get them off ebay, seal them with silicone and they will be better than the apc ones.

Got mine off eBay too, they don't leak.

Also had APC ones, they didn't leak either.

eBay ones look better than Apc "frosted" ones, eBay ones you can get in chrome or "jdm" black B)
