They came stock on my 02.
Currently, I am waiting for PIAA Cobalt Blue D2R bulbs to arrive.

I bought mine for about 1/3 of that price, which is pretty much retail, shop around at different dealers.

I had on Piaa xtreme white bulbs @4150K and just recently one of my bulbs blew. I'm looking around for a new set but it seems that they don't make them anymore They have a newer "plus" out that has a lesser Kelvin rating!

Let us know how those work out for you. I've been tempted to get those for my ES, but even with my special discount through my work they're still ridiculously high. My bulbs are about 5 years old now, though, so maybe when they detiorate a little more I'll upgrade... if I can scrounge up enough cash.

If you can't go HID, then you need to do an HIR swap. Even uprated 9005 silverstar / piaa's don't do much at all on the road.
