You might even be able to get the hyper blue bulbs at autozone or pepboys, though hyperblue ain't my style.

Must match to original: 28.54 / 8.26 watts, clear, wedge base, style 3457/3557LL

i tryed to get hyper blue at autozone and pepboys and no luck but the only reason i am going hyper blue is because the car is blue but idk and thanks for the help.

Nah those headlights are nice.. i would LOVE to have them on mine. They're the sport model, and if you're loooking to keep the black/blue look (which i think is a good idea) smoke your headlights out with some film! Members here have used it, it is laser cut to fit perfect to your model headlight. Look at weasel's lights, he has much more extensive work done with his, but a film would be a cheap and easy solution for now!

Weasel will become famous soon enough
I think clearing out the headlights and putting the chrome/amber invisibulbs would look great on her... Here's what I did to mine, just imagine it with clear lenses for the extra clean look. As long as your headlights are made before 10/02 they can be opened and modded.

And here's some shots with everything hooked up and running.
