I know there are a few sites online that have some decent bulbs. It's real easy to do, plug and play, and you shouldn't have any problems with aftermarket lights. If anything, you may have to grind down a little bit of the hole where the bulb goes in like I had to do, but was real easy.

DDMTUNING.com has a really good deal on bulbs and it comes with the harness nd everything. You just need to do a little fitting for the ballast. I converted my '03 an had no problems, didnt need to shave anything either.

eBay, plenty of people will tell you not to. But I love mine! Have zero problems. Look for the seller xenonmarket.
