These any good?
Not paying nearly 30 quid that VX want...
Do they just fit straight on? Will I need to change anything else, heard someone talking about the "fried egg" effect  think this is only with when you go clear?
Cheers

just ask them for some Corsa-C side repeaters
the second you say 'smoked' they assume irmscher, hence the price
normal corsa-c ones arent as dark as smoked ones, but still look ace!

No they are clear! Just can see the black plastic behind them. I've had mine off today so I know that for a fact. Attacked mine with tint spray thought today and they look like this now:
