Search eBay... you'll find all sorts from stock to Cobra-style to
projector-style (some may need modification)...there are even tinted
models now.

I've replaced mine and the headlights went in fine...I used the
adjustment hardware from my original headlights.  The corners needed
spacers (rubber washers) at the mounting locations to fit better.

I ended up buying a set of reproduction '98 cobra lamps. Haven't
installed them yet. They have clear lenses, and are likely at least close
to what you want.

Well I am getting closer to putting them on. Got my relay wiring all
done. just have to install it all. I just have to make everything look
like it came from the factory that way.... any hows they look fine. I
think all the places get  them from the same source. I just picked the
best shipping+cost option from an ebay seller with a good rating. Called
himself 'performance depot'. I got what I expected, decent looking
reproduction cobra lamps. remind me in about a week I should have them on
by then...

Have them in as of today. They work very well. Of course I put in all new
wiring with relays too. And good bulbs. Only real problem I had is I
broke one of the stupid plastic fasteners used for the aiming screws and
had to use one from the original lamps. No big deal I suppose.
