Headlight opinion
ok, so ive been in the market of buying some 2005-2007 f250 headlights (chrome, but pref the hd ones) for cheap.
now my question is, is this the cheapest place to get oem parts?
www.directfordparts.com ? ive found their headlights for 153 a piece.
also i was doing some more searching and found these for a killer deal, but am concerned if theyll look the exact same as oem and the quality.

The pics you show of the lights in question look very aftermarket, compaired to the ones your truck sports in your second post. Nice rig. But I'm figuring your in need of a 05-07 owners opinion of OEM simallarity to the ones you found . good luck I've an 04.

05-07 headlights
no they do not look aftermarket!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. they are the aftermarket version of the factory 2005-2007 sd. just a little bit cheaper made too. the factory ford lights will be a safer choice imo. and they come with bulbs too. aftermarket lights do not, so add $40 for bulbs. i did the swap. ALL GENUINE FORD PARTS. check my gallery. you know that the 05-07 lights use a 9008 headlight bulb. so you have to change the wiring pigtail on your 9007 headlight plug, and cut the header panel to accept the newer style headlight. go to puredieselpower.com. they sell the kit. and have instructions on exactly where to cut.
