So I found out that before I got my car, the taillight bulb mount had basically sheared off and I will need a whole new taillamp assembaly, or some seriously creative way to keep it in there, to ever make it work again. The last owner used a few finishing screws to screw it in and keep it mounted to the circuit board...
****.
So I have been thinking about swapping over to new taillights with clear turn signals for a little while. Figure now is the time right? So I want some that are pretty close fitment to factory (for oubvious reasons)
I've got about 3 different options.
One:
Alvo. Made in Estonia, commonly found on eBay, Figure they'll cost me about $230 USD.

Yes, they do make ones that are also not all clear but red with clear turn signals. I asked.
This kit is nice because it includes all new gaskets, lenses, bulbs, etc...

One t-bricker has had them for some time on his brick. Like four years. He seems to like them, says they're not PERFECT, but are VERY good. Expensive though. 1,950 Denmark Kroner is about $354USD. Plus Shipping from Denmark. Yikes!

VBS - Volvo Boutique Shop - from thailand. I know of nobody who has these, and just recently came to my attention.
It's nice, because they're DAMNED CHEAP - but sometimes you get what you pay for... Who knows how much shipping might be, as well.
So I'm just really not sure. what do all of you think? Your opinions would be GREATLY appreciated!
