Default Scale headlamps?

Looking for some durable headlamps for use on the front of a rally car.

I've tried some stuff but have had trouble with durability. Doesn't have to be function, just tough.

I don't know how hard your drivin but try walmart or your local dollar store. Find some cheap mini keychain style flashlights. Take them apart, and use just the chrome light bucket and lens. Im not sure if this helps because im not familiar with your project. This is what i've done for my projects.

I use the Ram off road lights on my Mounty. I took out the weak led that came mounted on the black post and inserted brighter leds. ICA glued them to my grill to get them in the correct place, then I applied Gorrila glue around the buckets and the grill, almost bullet proof now and they look great (on the outside).

You can see from all the black paint that is missing on the hood and grill that I beat the piss out of this front end.
