WARNS!!! Look better, much broghter IMHO. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

My opinion is PIAA 580's look better and are pretty damned bright. Like the Warns that JamesT has, the PIAA 580's only have horizontal bars on the grill covers, but their diameter is a bit larger than the Warns and matches the stock head lamps. And when mounted on the Warn light bar they line up with the stock headlamps. Most of the other PIAAs I've seen on H2's on this site are 520's and 540's which have the crosshatch grill covers, which are smaller in diameter, and which aren't as bright as the 580's. SUMMARY-OF-LAST-PARAGRAPH: if you want them to be same size and to line up with the headlamps get the PIAA 580s

I got my PIAAs off of ebay for 50-66% of retail prices. Still pricey, but tolerable.

One other thing to consider when picking out lights is integrating the switches on the dash. The Warn switches are tollerable stylewize by some, but the PIAA switches really don't go with the look at all and you'll probably want to mount a custom switch. Use find to locate old posts on switch mounting, or PM me and I'll dig up some threads from history. A bunch of us have tried different styles and locations.
