Cost of Diamond Headlights
 
I've got a question that I know MustangGT221 can answer, plus I'm hoping some more of you could help as well.....
I'm now getting ready to buy a new set of Diamond headlights for my '94 F150, I have been quoted on Ebay around $89.00 for the pair with NO bulbs, lots of the other applications folks list there are 1/2 of that WITH bulbs, why are the '92-'96 Fseries models so much higher? does anyone know of a cheaper source? and if I may ask how much did YOU pay for yours?? Thanks!

One thing to be careful of is the way they are designed. There are two versions of them. One of them (like mine) have a little socket for the light bulb. I don't know what they call it, but the bulb sits inside a little "cover" which reflects the light backwards into the lense, and the lense reflects it out to the street. I like it because it gives better light, and it covers the light bulb for a clean look. The other version doesn't have that, you just plug the bulb in and it's there for the world to see. All headlights are expensive for these trucks, the stock replacements are even more money! I got mine from ebay for 120 bucks, seem to have gone down in price by now.

Thanks! MustangGT221, Great info, I thought they were just Diamond Headlights out there, and didn't realize that there were two styles, could you please tell me what brand name yours are?

Here's a source of lights. Don't know if they have what you're looking for.

Hey Justin! I went for a nice stroll tonight and checked out many lights on vehicles. I know what you guys are talking about now. Diamond Lights. They seem to be standard on imports. I do like the shape of the sheilds you spoke of. Since they are polished, and have that diamond shape to them, the dispersal of light is better than a light without. Yes? Thanks, I'll talk with you guys later...
