Default Aftermarket Headlights

Anyone know of some aftermarket headlights that DONT leak or oxidize??? I'm looking for the 01-04 smoked stock lights but want some good ones. Thanks!

Clear corners

Amber corners

Both of these are nice, BEFORE you install them you need to take some clear silicone and run it around the edge where the lense meets the housing. This will keep them from leaking. Unfortunatly, all lights that are exposed to alot of sun will oxidize.

head light covers or the stick on tint would help some but would suck if you do any night time driving.

Yes they suck for night driving. Mine are spray tinted and there are golf carts that put out more light than my car, lol.[8D]

Some of the aftermarket headlights dont hug the tips of the wheel well fenders. I have seen brand new Bullit mustangs where the owner puts in smoked or clear corner headlight housings.. and they dont fit snug.

That is my driver's side headlight. The car has never been crashed or banged up and the headlights dont fit. How would I go about getting them to fit?
