$10 - $15. Sorry to hear about it...Someone mentioned torx screws..What size?
Not sure, I just took one of the stock bumper light screws in and matched the size as closely as possible. I could not find any as long as the stock bumper light screws, but the hole in my clear bumper lights are deeper than the stock ones (go figure ), so it's fine.

I like to tinker w/ my car and stuff, so every now and then I will remove my bumper for whatever reason (cleaning or removing headlights, rewiring turn signals, etc). I couldn't find silver Torx screws, but the black ones I have fit pretty deep (more than stock) into my bumper lights, so you can't see them.
Doesnt/Shouldnt matter. Superglue your clears on and use those torx screws.

If you plan on taking off your bumper, just take the bumper off and leave the lights in place. Your bulbs can come out of the lenses anyway.

Oh please, I'm tired of people saying that. They are around 30 dollars new plus tax. I'd like someone to show me where they found it for 10 bucks. Still isn't worth it to steal though.

first time i had my clears... they fell out on the freeway.... scared the hell outta me, made a big mess....

Then i got a new set of clears and used a longer screw and used a very tight nut to secure it... Just did it so it wouldn't fall out again, never thought people actually stole clears.... (now thats low!)

At least the guy who smashed my window for my Tach had better morals and taste.... i know how you feel...

I pu on my new set today and went to Home Depot and got 1 way screws. This way noone should be able to get them undone. The way I figure it is that the bulbs will last 2+years and I will be going with the JDM conversion in that period. So hopefully the next time they come off it is for good.

I also went to look into alarms today but I will post that in the Audio forum.
