gotta ask, what is with the first pic?? It looks like the lens are all cracked.....

Did you end up sand blasting them to diffuse the light?

It looks like a plastic film over them, but what is it that looks like extra holes?

Nope no sandblasting light works perfect. I took the picture on my kitchen table. That is the reflection of our chandilier.

They seal against factory rubber on the car. There is 1/16 of rubber all the way around.

Hey thanks for the LP lenses. You should really post some better lighted pictures and make sure everyone in the ebay listings understand the last pictures are of OEM ones in the auction. So, better pictures, tell em they have to use the original gaskets, and mark the OEM pictures. Otherwise, I think your heading for a couple of problems!
