I bought some 2005 headlights from dealer and put them in. I like the clear lense and then added silverstars from wally world.It was a pita to get in the 05 but worth it

sylvania makes some headlights that you can get at autozone for 20-60 depending on which level you buy. other wise you could always convert to HID head lights. which again depending on what kit you buy could run you from 59.99-149.99 I found this website when I did a quick search for converting to hid from stock. I don't know much about this brand or the conversion but I do know that there is another thread on here about it.

cheap hid updates are wrought with issues.... do a search in this site...
bad lens, bad cutoff, poor aiming..... good ones are great, but like many things...

The 2002 MY Crystaline headlights make a big difference for not alot of money. You can get them off of ebay or carlightswholesale.com

Car Lights Wholesale

They bolt right in and give your truck a really nice look.
