Or tell me how to upload pics from an iPhone so I can show you

email the pics to yourself or pull them off your cloud and just attach them to your post with the little paperclip thing.

Tinted will make it a little difficult to see the white background and non-tinted you can see the white background with no issues... hope that helps... If not, go to their website and look at the differences...

Tinted, and ghosted. It´s just plain black as you can see. If they weren´t tinted and ghosted you´d be able to see a line where the lights are.

Like these:
First - tinted and ghosted (no visible stripe)
Second - Clear (very visible line)
Third - Tinted (Visible, yet darker line)

Ok mine are VR and I just thought the line would be tinted so I wouldn't be able to see the lights inside very well. I'll just call acc since I can't seem to learn to upload pics on this dern site. Thanks for the help!!

AAC fixed that issue a long time ago

All the first gen sidemarkers had sealing issues...yes.

The newer design/sealant seems to be remedying the issue however. I've yet to have a 2g style piece to go bad like the 1g pieces were susceptible to doing.

Lifetime warranty for those who had issues is nice since they'll replace the old with the newer style.
