Sorry to say but they never made any custom headlights for the 97 Bravada. I dont think they ever made projectors for any year jimmy/bravada headlights. We are stuck with the stockers. You can add an HID to them if you want.

There is always the possibility of updating to the newer front end and finding the rare HID headlamp housings from the special edition Jimmy or what was optional on the Bravada.

beam pattern on the stock headlight housing with HID in it is pretty good, not much different than using halogen 9006 bulbs, only brighter. lots of glare as with most non projector housing fitted with HID so not very fun for the person you're tailgating. i've had to settle with it for my 97 jimmy
