Diamond clear corner review

So I installed the diamond clear corners.

Overall I am not impressed. They look great with the lights off, but my high wattage turn signals do not appear as bright, which is not what I expected. I don't like the design of the reflectors. I will edit this post with pics, when I get the chance.

From ProCarParts part #93CAMRO-CBL is the regular clear corners...part #DBL-35-CMOX is the diamond clears.

I like my diamond clears. I'm still using the stock bulb, still white, and it's very bright to me. Brighter than the amber corners.

I got just the regular ones and love them. The one problem is they sent me the wrong bulbs and they are circular not the thin slip in connector. Anyone know the GM part number for the amber bulbs to go in our turn signals to replace the old white ones? RIght now i have been driving my car with no problem and I dont think anyone can really notice at night as long as you headlights are on

UPDATE: Just to clarify.. I had the regular clear corners up until now. This could be a case of me being VERY picky. I am (and was before) running SPW (Nokya) 27w/7w bulbs, and obviously they would be brighter with clear bulbs (non-blue tinted). I am thinking of trying the CUZO or Krypton bulbs next.

At night, they look amazing from an angle... I will definately have to get pics. They seriously looked like HID (colortemp).

Straight on, they look about the same, or possibly less bright.
During the day, they are DEFINATELY not as bright as before, probably due to the design of the reflectors.
