Ebay is your best bet to getting any set. Note they won't go by brand name on ebay, so you'll need to go by looks.
I've had two sets so far:
The first was Eagle Eyes, which is what it looks like jb98camaro has. They looked good but the output was just OK - they use H3 bulbs and the projector makes a narrower beam. I didn't like that too much.
Second and current set is Sonars. While I don't like the appearance of them quite as much as the Eagle Eyes, they have an H1 projector and the light output is much better. The beam is wider, the cutoff was notably smoother, plus the "squirrel finders" let a little bit of light through above the cutoff so it isn't pitch black there yet it doesn't create glare for other traffic.
There are two more types out there, an "Audi R8" style and another with a third small light between the low and high beams. Jury is still out on the R8 style, I'm considering trying a set since my driver side Sonar got busted up this past winter. I don't particularly like the other set with that third little light in them, they look weird, and I don't know what the light output is like with them.
