Ok, I got my OEM driving light brackets, now all I need are the lights. I want something the same size as the factory lights ar something close to it. The larger lights are nice, but for some reason I prefer the look of the smaller factory lights. I was looking at the PIAA 510, which are about 4" in diameter. Just wondering how close this is to the factory size. Thanks.

I'm holding a factory driving light in my hand... The glass measures 4" across if you disregard the curvature. The chrome housing measures just under 5" at its widest point.

Looking from the side, the glass sticks out 1/2" and the housing is just over 2" deep.

If you meant to say 'brackets", I got them from the parts department at my dealer. They robbed me $60 for the two brackets and mounting hardware, but I searched and couldn't find the brackets by themselves anywhere else.
