I got mine at DDM tuning about 3 years ago. Paid like $30 or so for the pair.

Cheap chinese bulbs...but 3 years later they are still in there.

Ddmtuning.com. $15 for a pair of bulbs with 1 year warranty. Replace both as the colors will be off if you don't. Order d2r type bulbs. 4500k is the color closest to stock

another option which I have great success with are MTEC's. They use genuine General Electric components, and a 2 yr warranty. Available in different temperature ranges. They are about $115-$120/pair.

Do you need to remove the headlight completely to change the HID bulbs? I mean, get the bumper out and all that stuff??

You ain't, I was just wondering how I could get my hand to reach the plastic cover, there's not much space in there :P

EDIT: There is definitely not enought space to get my hand to reach there, I only have 2 fingers reaching the plastic cover so I'll need to take some parts off haha !!

Try lifting the car and removing the wheel. Lots more room that way.
