Hey people of dsmtuners, I'm new to these forums. :)

I come here to seek help regarding my (German) European Mitsubishi Eclipse 1st gen (1992 model). I've tried to search, post this on other forums and generally ask around, but most people don't seem to know, so I figured that this might be the place to ask. My apologies if this already has been asked, but I tried to do my best at searching before I posted.

First of all, the rear spoiler sometimes has the tendency to leak. When I open the rear hatch to access my boot, water that has gathered during rainfall pours down from the spoiler into the compartment. This is somewhat annoying as the water runs down and turns into moisture. Is there a way to fix this? And is a common problem on these cars?

Secondly, regarding the turn signals. I've already replaced my original turn signals from orange to white, but clear glass/plastic for the side turn signal is impossible to find. I've already tried to search eBay, but nothing was found. I know that some cars America don't have these, but there has to be somewhere to get those clear side turn signals? I've searched a lot of shops and stores around here, but they mostly seem to have those for 2G Eclipses. My question is as following; would a clear side turn signal glass from a 2G Eclipse fit a 1G Eclipse?

Finally, it's regarding the floor mats. I've been searching for some new ones as my old ones are weary and torn, and I found a set of black floor mats with the Ralliart logo on which I'd like to have in my vehicle. However, they only seem to be custom fit to match the 2G. Does the 1G and 2G have the same floor mat alignments?

Thanks in advance! Your help is much appreciated.:)
 
I'm pretty sure the 1g and 2g mats are different. And as far as the spolier goes, try to kind of plug up the gap between the spoiler and the hatchdeck with squishy rubber molding, which you can find at most home improvment stores
 
As stated before for your wing problem I would just go to a home improvent store and get some kind of window or door seal(rubber or foam) and put that on the wing.

For the corners the 2g corner will not fit on a 1g. If im thinking correctly the 2g doesnt have corner turn signals.

And is this what your lookin for:
92 93 94 Eclipse JDM Clear Front Corner Lights NEW:eBay Motors (item 280401651575 end time Oct-24-09 16:10:04 PDT)

Thanks, for the tip regarding the wing.

However, I think you misunderstood me regarding those turn signals. First of all, those lamps you showed me wouldn't fit my vehicle. The 1G was only offered with pop-up headlights during its entire lineup (1990-1994) in Europe. Besides, I have already replaced those with clear glass (90-91 MIT ECLIPSE/EAGLE TALON/LASER CLEAR CORNER LIGHTS:eBay Motors (item 230380463574 end time Sep-27-09 07:43:02 PDT)). The 2G does have turn signals, here's an image of one with its original orange side turn signals:

Here's an image of my car, showing its orange side marker light I'm talking about in order to clear up some confusion.

Oh sorry. Yea I did understand you and forgot that the EDM DSM was the 1GA body. Yea man I dont have a clue as to where to find clear sidemarkers for your car unless you make some from another car work for ya.
 
Buy DEPO sidemarkers for a Honda and just pop out the clear lens and throw them on yours. Should just click into place or gorilla glue that bi***
 
I wonder if the Evo 8 side marker would fit. Dont have a 1g but do have an evo and it looks like a similar size. may require some modification
