My current headlights are chiped and yellow beyond polishing, so I am looking at some new ones. I would MUCH rather put the money somewhere else, but Its getting harder and harder to see driving at night. I really want to get a GOOD quality set, one that preferably doesnt yellow or discolor.. is there such a thing? Doesnt anyone have any experience with aftermarket headlights?

I found these at blueovalindustries.com and think they look pretty cool, how well would they hold up??

Get those or stock lights. Then put some silverstar blubs.

If you want something that will last get OEM or as close as you can. Don't look towards Ebay or anything like that.

It'll cost a bit more for OEM, but worth it. I paid $90.73 11 months ago (for 1)from Randy Stinchcomb - Ford Parts Forum - http://forums.modulardepot.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=21

I bought a set of all clear from ebay for like 105 plus 35 shipping and they are holding up just fine with no fogging. They also look 10x better without the yellow side marker.

Because aftermarkets fog up. I've bought maybe 20 sets of aftermarket headlights in the past, and they all fog.

Some silicone sealer would keep them from fogging up.
