the quality comes in to play when you think of how well an 'APC' clear lens seals (crap) vs. how well a factory Chrysler lens would seal. Aftermarket clear lenses end up retaining moisture, and they always end up looking yellowed. a factory piece is always preferred, and i would certainly pay the $100 again for them. i went through at least three sets of clear markers on my Miata because they kept getting discolored and held water -- then finally went back to the stock amber lenses --
