stupid me...too sleepy this morning when I back out my koup from the garage. luckily the mirror flipped out and the only damage I made is a small hole on the plastic signal light cover.

Does anyone know where I can order the cover to replace it? Also...would it leads to any problem if rain leaks in from this tiny hole?

Thanks ForteSXFan21! I guess you are still right if I can only purchase one side instead of a pair =)

This site is amazing...I was searching about how to replace the signal light cover..then found all those DIY Mods ...>_< SOOOOOO TEMPTING!!!

Oh and if I leave it like that, will rain gets in and harm some electrical parts? Sorry I am car dummy =)

I cracked my head light on my blazer and it was fine until it rained really bad one day and the light stopped working. I thought I destroyed everything, turns out the bulbs just burnt out because of it.

Still I would at least put some clear packing tape on it until you get a new one.

Thanks for the advice Xray89! dealership...wants to charge me $78+hst when I ask them for a quote of replacing it. For that price, i could of order a pair of nicer signal on ebay

I bought just the covers and had them painted black before they shipped them. took about two weeks for delievery.

hey thx for the info!

Is a raining week in Toronto! I used some clear silicone and epoxy to cover up the hole for now in case water gets into the bulb area.

ooo two weeks is pretty fast!
