I'm going to replace my headlights because the weather stripping is ripped off and they're frosted. What are your favorite aftermarket headlights for a 94-98? I'm looking for something a little more modern than OEM while respecting the aesthetic of the car.

OEM looking headlights would be my favorite. Going with the 94-98 clear cobra lenses would be as far as I go.


Aftermarket lights on these cars looks cheap and tacky.

Don't fall for the eBay OEM light. They are garbage. I've been though 4 sets. They usually start crapping out after 7-8 months. By a year you need a new set. I've tried several different companies. None were very good.

Thanks for the input guys! I got my self a set of cobra headlights from LMR. https://lmr.com/item/LRS-13008B-KIT/94-98-Mustang-Cobra-Headlight-Kit-With-Amber-Sidemarkers

I'm typically not a fan of amber sidemarkers but the other options did indeed look a little tacky. I have seen some smoked headlights that actually look pretty slick on the 94-98s but I don't think it would fit the colors on my car.
