Phillips make the H6054 "cool blue" headlights. other than that you'll need a conversion thing (non-sealed beam housing and a H3, H4 bulb)

I have the H4 conv. on mine here are some pics
you can get the head light at most local part stores for about $25 each (made by APC) bulbs dont come with the kit. the APC kits are made of plastic. the ones I have are made of glass (bought them at a local rice shop) you can also get them on ebay.

I have a set of the 4x6" housings at my shop right now that got returned cuz they didnt fit the guys truck like he thought they would, that I cant return or rally sell at the shop because the packaging is gone. Ill send them to anyone COD for around 45$(shipping included) for the pair add 20$ for hyperwhite style Toucan bulbs. Our headlights are infact 4x6" right? Are our bulbs the H4's? I cant remember as I have had a true headlight conversion for a couple years.

4"x6" and H4 bulbs are correct!

Just some advice...

If you drive in places where it's really dark, then you should invest in PIAA's they're really bright. If you go with some cheap blub all you would get is a blue-ish light instead of a white light. Blue-ish light is easier on the eyes and looks nicer, you won't be able to see anything. PIAA's produce a very bright white light with very very little amount of blue in it, making it incredibly good for driving.

IMHO...I think that a very bright white light looks better than a blue-ish light. If you don't want to pay $90+ on the PIAA bulbs then I suggest that when you buy the bulbs make sure that the bulb color isn't too blue.

Peace

I read somewhere that the sylvanias shine brighter than the piaas or any other aftermarket replacement bulb. But then again, sylvania just came out with newer and better bulbs than their old ones. i forget what theyre called - not the cool blue ones

Yeah, I believe they're called "Silverstar" or something like that. My friend said that he liked them and didn't have any problems with them. I was thinking about investing in a pair myself.
