You can get them cheaper off eBay but you'll have to wait for a set to come up. Also try the classifieds at thirdgen.org.

I got mine from Advanced Auto Parts for $59.95 but then a few months later I got a $52 ticket and 2 points off my liscense b/c the state trooper said they were "illegal" I think he was just pissed off b/c his old lady wouldn't give him any.....

Yeah, you gotta be careful with those. A buddy of mine with a 5.0 got a ticket, and the cop told him they were illegal to have on the car at night

i like the idea of making your lights dissapear because im not too fond of them but something like blackouts on a car thats red/white/silver/yellow?!?!?! (wtf who in their right mind does that) looks weird. Id only put blackouts on a black car.

Amen. White cars especially look awesome in the rear stock. I saw one getting on an exit ramp today... so sweet. Black is the only color 3rd gen I'd have blackouts on...
