It all depends on what you are looking for like: beam pattern, function, driving/ fog lights, etc. I have the Blazer Diamond Blue Driving lights on my car and they work pretty sweet. They run about $70 at Checkers Auto Parts. They are 4" and fit in tight to the bumper(with alittle overhang. They actually look really good and are bright.

The sad thing is they didn't make it through my accident. frown

I drove around with these driving lights with only one headlight for a long time. Police didn't pull me over until the driving lights went out. Now they are all over me.

Check your local laws to see if you can drive with them(blackouts). Here in MN they are illegal(at night), but in many states they aren't.

I bought some from Wal*Mart. They fit in the holes very well. I did make the hole a little bit larger so that I can adjust them as much as I would like.

The Diamond Blues fit perfectly in the opening of the pre-98 bumpers. I got mine at Pep Boys.
