APC lites...any new truck guys - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just put a set of blue tinted Euro tails in my 98 and do they look good. Signals and markers too. I thought from my experience with them, the quality was excellent. Only minor filing on the grille to get the markers to fit. Now the shop I got them from has been having a lot of warranty on these lites. Had the chrome on some signals turn black, and a few problems with the tails leaking. Just wondering if anyone else has come accross these problems and what their fixes have been. I think I'm gonna silicone around the glued edge so they don't leak. Unless somebody has any other suggestions.

Had APC euros on vehicles for over a year now no probs, have heard the same comments about the cheaper lights but not APC they are a better quality, they may cost 40$ more but tou get what you pay for.
