Angry Problems with the clear corners

I recently purchased the clear corners from the F-150online store. I got the ones for a '97-'01 F-150/Expedition. I have a '00 Lightning. I was told this is a simple swap.

These lights do not match up at all. No screw hole at all!!!! And the studs on the back do not line up. Do I have the wrong lights??? Or am I doing it all wrong??

i have clear corners...if i remember right, the corners dont unscrew, they actually just pull out, and snap back in...i remember having to get a nice grip on em first, and was afraid to break the stock ones...but after some slight jiggling, they just popped right out...the bolts on the back under the hood hold the headlights in and also the bracket for which the corners snap into...

There is one Torx screw on the top of your OE lenses. Once that is taken out, the lights should just slide out. You may have to jiggle a bit or get a fine bladed screwdriver and work the lenses a bit.

The new ones should look identical to what slid out of your truck. Only clear instead of yellow/amber. If they don't, then you did indeed get the wrong ones.

Installation is reverse of removal . . .with the Torx screw being the last thing tightened.

Later,

I recently got an e-mail frome Lemere Enterprises telling me that they sent out the wrong clear corners. I have yet to sent them back, but that is the scoop.
