Think it depends on the car you are building. I hunted high and low for a set of Guide headlights for the '32 Highboy. They look good on a period correct car, but a set of the new chrome tri-bars with built in flashers would be out of place on this car.

I suggest you go to Susquehannah Motorsports.com. They have a lot of good information on the different types of lighting available. I chose a Hella 7" round reflector with the screw in halogen light bulb. This offers a large selection of wattages, bulb type: halogen, Xenon 10, 20, 30% white etc. I used the European E-Code lights which put all of the light pattern on the road instead of 20% stray light for lighting overhead sighns like the DOT reflectors do. I was able to carefully drill off the mounting lugs and they snapped right into my Bob Drake repro headlight buckets.
