Hella Euro 500E Headlamp

Recently someone decided to smash a beer bottle on my passenger side headlamp of my 93 400E with the 500E Euro Hella headlamps. I purchased these a while ago when Bergwerks was still in business. I have searched high and low and through numerous importers that could not help me find this. Even my local shop said they had no idea where they could continue to look. If anyone has any thoughts or importers that they could point me in the direction of that would be great. I have contacted Hella USA and they said I would have to find an importer to bring it in if I could find it.
Thanks.

No, those are standard 300/400E lights, not 500

Those are early 500e lights. Note the chrome bezel around the fog light.
