Headlight recomendations?

[StarquestMan]

Well I just came in from tinkering on my truck and when I went to close the hood I noticed a nice sized hole in one of my Cibie E-code headlights I robbed from my Conquest. I priced checked a website I have seen before called danielsternlighting.com only to realize that they have gone up to $168 a pair! I could probably order a single replacement for half that however i'm kinda broke right now lol.
I should probably get something more durable anyway since these are known to be fragile lights, so I was wondering if anyone has any good headlights they would recommend that don't cost a fortune?

basically any 2bx headlamp will fit. Tonnes of options

I forgot about these guys I had looked at before, they look pretty good.

They are ARB branded, so are probably decent

you could go LED
unfortunately they are now illegal here (were a grey area before, but none have the correct standard markings and are now being targeted)

I'd go for a semi sealed headlight and swap the H4's for a pair of LED inserts. Something along these lines -

Added bonus is the integrated parking lights. Maybe ditch the halogen globes and use something like this -

Can be done on a tight budget :)

Thanks for the reply's guys! I forgot to mention that I would like to go with something that looks somewhat stock which is why I liked something along the lines of those ARB ones. I have heard that LED bulbs don't work properly with halogen housings due to the positioning of the LEDs against the reflector being different than a conventional halogen bulb. luckily my PIAA 4k bulbs are still good so ill probably stick with them for now, I do like the idea of LEDs for there lower current draw through the factory wiring though, maybe ill have to try them.
