Xenon Issue...

Hi guys i am new to this forum, i bought my 2005 C55 about 3 months ago and i love it. One thing though, when i actually got the car i realized that same day that it didn't have xenon lights! I dunno if that is normal or not but i went back to the dealership to discuss it with one of the salesmen there and he told me that it wasn't possible to install xenon lights in Canada as they would have to ship the car back to Germany as all the tools for this kind of procedure are there. Sounds very stupid to me but i ignored it. After 3 months this issue has really started to bother me. I read a couple of threads about xenon lights on the forum and realized that most of you guys have them installed.
I would really appreciate it if you guys could give me an input on this issue.
Thanx,
JM
