Where is a good place to get replacement headlights?

Both headlights were bad. We received another LTMV from a DOD grant. I swapped the headlights out of it for now.

I have replaced the push button switch with a three lever switch. All the lights come on except the headlights. I did the jumper wire across 30/87 on the headlight relay. Did the same with the brights. I see the bright light indicator kit in the dash. Still no headlights. Is there a power...
