Headlight options.
What are the headlight options available with out spending over $1200. Let me rephrase it...looking for after market headlight options. I don't want to spend 1500 on Morimoto headlights.

You can go to eBay or Amazon and you will find C7 and C8 look alike headlights but understand what you are getting into. Like mounting studs, kelvin ratings etc.

Spyder has the morimoto style lights for cheaper, but spyder quality is more miss than hit in my experience. A couple of other options as well that are cheaper. I learned long ago to not buy cheap lights with crap warranty. I hated to spend the money on the morimotos, but did it and love the lights. I wouldn't go any other route, but if I had to I'd go with the spyder lights. Couple of different options. The cheaper ones require bulbs and the more expensive ones have bulbs built into them.

There are things one should never cheap out on when it comes to vehicles; brakes, tires, & headlights fall into that category. Save up your pennies and buy a quality product because you're more likely to end up spending more on, and then replacing, a crap product.

I personally like the style of the Anzo headlights. They are an American brand designed and engineered in Southern California.

And you know that for a fact? I am posting to offer an alternative in response to the OP. Unless you personally have experience you should not make comments you know nothing about. Thanks for the uniformed comment.
