What kind are you looking for? You could get some depo's or some tyc? We sale those at my work, They look like factory units only half the price. I have had not 1 complaint from them. For aftermarket lamps they have pretty good quality.

whether they are ebay or not, condensation can still build up, even in OEM (factory) ones.

no matter which one you go with, just make sure they are sealed good.

yes they are, but they have no city lights. no city lights, not worth buying. i mean, isn't that what we do the whole swap for any way?

Not a fan of the linked headlights. They look choppy since they're different colors.

I know some on eBay have city lights even though they don't mention them. Eran had a set for his '97 awhile back. I don't remember the seller's name though, or even if he still sells on eBay.

ebay or no ebay, when you get it reseal it with liquid gasket and then silicon, get every little spot, dont cheap out, the extra two hours is worth the extra 4 years i had my headlights on without condensation, but you have to check it once and awhile when it on the car, because weather and wear will mess up the seal eventually,
