Default New headlights

Just bought my 99 black SS M6 in December from a guy in New Jersey...only 41,000 miles! Not bad, huh???

Anyways, I need new headlights but I don't want to pay $400 for a new set from GM parts direct or pro car parts....Anybody know where I can get a new set of either stock or whistler modded headlamps (like the ones pro car parts used to sell)???? Any help greatly appreciated.

Yeah, I used the Permatex kit and it made my lights all fogged over....did everything by the book and used the whole bottle of polish and spent 3 hours on them....won't clear up. I'm giving up on these. Need some new ideas or new headlamps.
