I was shinning the flashlight at my clear corners for no reason at all when I noticed that my day time bulbs are starting to burn through my clear corners. Not the lenses, but the bottom part. Have any of you guys had this problem?
yep on my last set i had in my car had the same problem was burning the bottom and yes it will make a hole eventually , but bought another set even had them tinted dark but never installed them i planned to put led's in there to eliminate the heat problem but just put my stockers back and now have the clears for sale...

if you run leds for the signal bulbs dont you also need to run a signal lever that is compatible with leds? Otherwise wont they not work properly?
They will work but flash very fast because LEDs consume much less power than a standard filament bulb so the car think the bulb is burnt out and flashes rapidly to let you know. LED flasher will be needed.

Where could I get the LEDs and the flasher for my front clear corners? I just bought new ones a few days ago.
I've gotten LEDs from just about everywhere and the cheapest place you'll find them is eGay...you may wait a while for them to get here from freaking Hong Kong but they're way cheaper, it's the only place I buy LEDs from now, bulk or with a base. Just search your bulb type number (ie 1157 or 2157, etc) and you'll come up with all kinds of stuff.
As far as an electronic flasher goes, you should be able to pick them up at any auto parts store.
