Default Best Place to Order Replacement Headlights?

2008 Trailblazer
Want to replace hazy headlights, no time for "refurbishing".
Any recommendations on best place to order some that look good and fit properly?
Thanks

Never had to use the toothpaste method or vinegar method. For simplicity, Amazon should have them, but so do others as well.

I have had great luck with TYC CAPA Certified headlamp assemblies from rockauto. I have them on 3 different vehicles. The CAPA certified ones cost a little more, but they fit and function just like OEM ones with zero distortion.

I totally agree with using CAPA certified parts when possible. Keep in mind, though, that these are plastic parts, and neither FedEx nor UPS is exactly gentle with their packages.

If you can find CAPA certified headlights at a local parts store, that would be the route I would go. They may cost more, but when you add in shipping it's not a great deal more. (Plus there's no chance of porch pirates making off with your new headlights.)

Rock Auto does have a good price on the CAPA headlamps.
