Popular choices are:

Morimoto - $40

CBI - $185

SVS - $180

Phillips - Under $100 I do believe

You're going to want the D2S bulbs 35W

Go with an OEM supplier (Osram/Phillips) or Morimoto at the very least. The Morimotos are worlds better quality than the eBay specials but even with those, I've had 2 different sets and one was a dud. Anything else will disappoint or be ricer blue.

I got mine from here - http://www.theretrofitsource.com/index.php?cPath=27

I got the Phillips 85122+ and they are great. Installed them about 5 months ago.
