Where can I find wire mesh headlight guards?
 
I've been looking high and low on the web for a set of wire mesh headlight guards... Anyone know if you can get them online or is that a universal part you can get a parts store (NAPA, Autozone, etc)?

Example...

They are hard to find, I looked for a long time before finally finding a set on ebay. I've been thinking of trying to design and manufacture some sets (maybe even matching sets for the side and rear lights).

Mine are "Rally" brand, packaging seemed to be old (10+ years).

You can find a lot for round headlights, hardly any for square...

Here are mine. If I make them they will be slightly bigger.

I think I got lucky and found a set on ebay myself! The guy says he bought for an 88 4Runner that he ended up selling so I'm gonna watch the auction instead of paying almost $40 between Buy It Now price and shipping... Lets hope I can get em cheaper!

P.S. Thanks for the pics, makes me want 'em more :)

Those are interesting, I wonder if the round sides would even fit/look right on the headlights? That is very expensive, I paid $25 total for mine.
