    Stuff I don't need.
    Best place to buy OEM headlights? One is cracked from hitting a deer and other is fogged out really bad (probably can fix it manually).

    Just look online. Find the part number you need and Google. Now is a good time with Black Friday as you get 10% off and free shipping.

    I ordered a replacement set for my 2nd gen from 1A auto they were about 169$ shipped and they work great. Install was fairly simple and they made the truck look 5 years newer. Just went with the stock units. Came with bulbs preinstalled which was a nice touch.

    Look at this thread to get some increased output from the OEM housings.

    Edit: I have Phillips Xtremevision +130% in mine and love them.

    You are correct that they do burn out quicker with higher performance, but it is an acceptable "sacrifice". They are listed at 400ish hours. I got about 13 months on the last batch before I purchased replacements.7 of those months was deep winter darkness.
