i got mine from quadratec.com, but if you can find em somewhere with cheaper shipping it'd be better, the prices are about the same everywhere ive seen though. make sure you get the xenon blue bulbs too. what sites have you seen em on?

I just bought replacement Sylvania "Performance" lights from Walmart, cost me about $25 for both, and I'm VERY satisfied with the light these put out compared to the stock lights I had, just an idea, something considerably cheaper that'll be better than what you have, but I think eventually I'd like to swap in some Delta's too, even if the light output isn't TONS better, they do look alot cooler,lol.

well reason being im going with delta's is because im also putting in some HID's so i need a housing to work best with that kind of setup. ive ran those xneon bulbs before in my yota and i was happy for a while untill i saw a set a HID's and a buddy's TJ and man were tose things bright.!

if you want to do a HID replacement. you gotta do nor-cal mr2 lights they are so sick and look great on jeeps these pics are of my friends 01 Cherokee sport the kit usually runs about 400 dollars but for group buy its 280.
