'06 SS/SC Headlight Upgrade

I spent most of my afternoon today replacing my stock brake rotors and pads with some aftermarket slotted/drilled rotors and Hawk HPS pads. Amazing deal from R1 concepts, I might add. However, I discovered a blown headlight during the process.

For a while, I've been on the lookout for a decent replacement headlight set, but I haven't found anything readily available. Now that I have a blown headlight, I think now would be an ideal time to pick up a set of aftermarket headlights and bulbs to swap out.

I've searched for threads about this and haven't come up with much of anything related; I'm interested in seeing what any vendors might have available and if there are any individuals out there that are making custom headlight builds, I'm potentially interested there, too. But I'm looking to pick up a set soon. Like now. I'd rather not buy a new set of stock headlights, though, since they all tend to get condensation and eventually go bad anyway.

Let me know what's out there guys, I'm pretty motivated to pick up a pair fast.

Uhm... I never said they WEREN'T readily available. I asked what's out there. I want to see what vendors might be selling headlights on here other than having to try to sift through 500 vendors and hope they have headlights available. I'd rather deal with the CobaltSS.net community than eBay.

Nice of you to waste your time as well as mine by trying to be funny... and failing.

Ijust purchased replacement headlights from a local parts supplier great prices. I needed them for a projector conversion by smartdude24. THe parts supplier I use is local, not in the USA but I am sure that if you check out the majors in Fla,. like autozone, pep boys (even napa) they will have some less money than GM same quality. It must tbe the cost of sponsoring waltrip, Napa prices seem high to me I no longer go there....
