I use TrackIR 5 and it works really well in TS2. I paid £135 for the pro version and it is really good for visibility at junctions as well as fun just taking in the sifgts.

I believe that OcR will be a big leap in immersion and look forward to the retail version, but I have heard ( maybe the OcR users can confirm or inform ) it has some wrinkles to iron out yet, such as comfort when using over extended playing times and where a user has imperfect vision i.e. long sightedness.

You can get the TrackIR 5 without the pro clip for £119, I have the pro but I found that the standard clip works fine for me and I can't be bothered to wear a headset or headphones so haven't used the pro clip much, but it does give a better range in distance and is less fussy about extrenuous light sources.

I sit about 5ft away from the scree/sensor and it works fine ( light sources are to either side not face on ). It runs at 120fps so is very smooth ( don't think a cheap webcam would run at that rate ).

I always use it for X-Plane, ARMA II, Grand Prix Legends, GTR2 and Power and Glory as it really adds a lot to the experience, in fact it has changed my criteria for buying and playing games since getting it.

Hope you find one in your budget,

No, Oculus Rift is a machine which you put in front of your eyes to give you motion sickness and headaches. You would normally buy TrackIR for a realistic game (Arma, X-plane/FSX, Euro Truck sim, Assetto Corsa). I find it hard to think that in real life circumstances that a box in front of your eyes is realistic.

For anyone coming accross this post through Google like I did, apparently the cheapest is:

Amazon.co.uk - £120 when I got it. I got it through Amazon.com international market, so all UK import costs were covered in the £120 price tag. Plus being dealt with entirely through Amazon gives piece of mind.

Tried that before I got TrackIR, almost turned me off using face tracking completely.
