i got the cobra specific clear corners from CJ's and put them on my car Saturday. Today i get home from work and there is condensation inside of the one that didn't seal well around the edge. Is there any way to fix these pieces of crap? Does anyone make a good quality clear corner that will not give me these problems?

This is pretty common and seems to be hit or miss regardless of the company you get them from. If you can, bring them inside or anywhere with low humidity, and let them dry out completely. Then you will want to reseal the edge that separates the lens from the housing.

A search should handle the specifics for you.

it's unbelievable that there's not a brand name part that is decently reliable out there

I got some in my new corners AND headlights the first time i washed it. I took them off, let them dry (I aided it by sticking a paper towel in the light hole. Then i saeled the lens with silicone. And most corners have a drain hole, make sure it is dry, and seal that too.
