Best Headlight Replacement?

Best Headlight Replacement?
So I'm looking to upgrade the headlights on my 02 Ex. Right now the upper a lower pieces aren't aligned, the lens is really foggy and I don't want to restore them, and lastly I like the single lens better. I was looking for 05-07 OEM style headlights or 05-07 headlight style with a projector replacement for the upper bulb. I've seen plenty on eBay and other sites, but I wasn't sure how good they are. Obviously, factory headlights would be the best, but they are also more expensive.
So what brands are reliable and will last, and which companies should I completely avoid? All suggestions are more than welcome. Thank you!

Ive had good luck with the eagle eye Harley Davidson lights the ones with the black surround instead of chrome. I've had 2 sets on 2 trucks both held up well first set was a little over 2 years old when I sold the truck still looked pretty much new going on my second year with the ones in my current truck still look pretty much new too. My brother also has a set in his truck I think they're a little over 4 years old now also still look pretty much new. Buy the light and the harness that goes from 9007 to 9008 separately you'll save about 50 bucks. The directions for cutting the header panel are online and I have pretty good link I can find if you want it. A dremel works best for cutting the header panel. The ideal set of lights for me anyway would be a set of the eagle eye Harley Davidson lights retrofitted with projectors for hids there is a guy on here that's doing them and theylook awesome.

If you want to upgrade to the 2005 OEM lights:
Ford - 00-03 Excursion 7.3L - Gauges, Electrical & Lighting - Electrical & Lighting - Headlights - Riffraff Diesel Performance
I have the chrome ones sitting in my garage waiting for project time to install them.
If you are on a budget I recommend 1AAuto as Diamnd1 mentioned. I got my tow mirrors from them and have been very happy with them. Great customer service and Tony answered all my questions.
