Default Need New Headlight Suggestions

I have a 2002 that still looks pretty good except for the headlights. Yellow and foggy looking.

I am thinking about replacing with the same factory type, but I will consider other headlights. I don't want anything that looks really wacky.

What kind of headlights are most dakota owners using?

I had these on my truck first

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/98-03...ht_5911wt_1165

but they were a waste of money. the mounting hardware that came with it quickly broke and the L.E.D. lights kept falling out and then they filled up with mud from my tires. the bulbs that came with it were also extremely dull.

THEN i got these.

And they are MUCH MUCH better i went to auto zone and bought silvenia silverstar bulbs (9007 stock bulb) and they are extremely bright and these are MUCH more sturdy.

mothers powerball for lights! I had the same thing on both my truck and my wifes Sebring, just put the polish on the ball, set the buff ball in a drill and polish away. Now if it is as bad as it sounds you will need the extreme damage kit they include in the package, just fine sand paper for you to wet sand the lens and then go over it again with the polishing compound. It worked great for me and was cheap when I got it on sale at Advance.

The problem is on the inside. Your post sounds like a commercial for that ridiculous product.
