    The BHLM would be cheaper, but many people don't feel comfortable ripping open their headlights. I agree with the Anzo headlights. Nice clean factory look but the black still toughens up the look of the front. I had those on my 07 for a while.

    Here were the Anzo lights that TypicalPete linked to on my 07. And i'm selling the left one if you're interested. I ran them for a few weeks and then cracked the right one so I just pulled them both and went a different route.

    I liked them a lot. I loved the look, they were a quality product (no leaking or anything), and I loved how they retained the factory look, unlike the 'angel eye' style lights which I think look a bit funky. I'm probably going to end up buying another set for my 2013.
