Default Need help, clear corner lights

I bought a set of clear corner lights off ebay. They were aftermarket, made in japan. They came in a green box, but I cant remember the exact manufacturer.... they looked excellent, but a few days ago while driving, the drivers side lens just fell off and left the exposed bulb... i want to contact them and get a new corner light to replace it but the ebay seller isnt gettign back to me with their contact info.... if anyone knows who makes them could you please let me know. See the link below for the product.

Aren't they made by D-speed? Or maybe they're made by multiple manufacturers? That sucks because these clear side markers are kind of rare and pricey (around $160 or so), and I didn't think the clear cover would just fall off like that so easily. You might be able to make another clear cover as a last option.

yes, you live in australia where its nice and warm. I live in the god-awful northern united states where it goes from 70 degrees and sunny to -10 the next day. The years of stress probably caused the adhesives to just wear right off. In any case, they contacted me back and said theyre only sold in pairs, which wasnt what i was asking. I want the manufacturer to send me one since their product was defective.

That's really not that bad (still high for what they are and how small they are). I hadn't even seen them on eBay but maybe they are under Soarer, not Lexus SC, which is what I'm usually searching under. I might have to pick up some, too, but my homemade (GS/IS) clear side markers have satisfied me.
