'02 headlights look good, but they won't be any different in color unless you get some different bulbs for them as well (which can just as easily be done with your stock lights). Upgrading the headlight harness may make them slightly brighter but will still look yellow against "blue" PIAA's.

Your cheapest option is probably to buy PIAA bulbs for your stock lights (~$50), followed by '02 headlights with PIAA bulbs (~$250 assuming OEM), or you could do a projector retrofit with 4500K HID's (~$400).

Now when u say followed by 02 factory headlight with piaa's in them whAt is the difference then just replacing the bulb and since I have drl s dose that chang anything

Just as I said, the cheapest option is just changing the bulbs in your stock lights. Next would be upgrading to '02 lights with new bulbs, which would provide similar color but more light output.
