I'm in HK (I presume you might be from HK too, right?). The lights are cheaper (and dropping!) and there is an abundance of it but the ones here won't be appropriate for the US cars as they are made for right hand drive cars....hence point in the wrong direction, as far as you guys are concerned....however, I may be able to hook you up with ordering some LHD versions if Richard's or any ohter sources (hey Alex, weren't you going to get some in also?)........

Believe me, they are different - I have researched for Alexbenz. They are pionted slightly away from the approaching traffic so that you don't dazzle people. The latest price I was quoted was less than US$500 and they seem to be dropping every week. I know there are about 200-300 unsold sets.

I am going to visit the guys who supply In-pro this weekend for my tails and can ask if they can send to u if you really can't get them in the US. Honestly tho, I think its not worth the trouble especially shipping costs will kill the deal if I ship them to you personally.

Alex,

To your knowledge does anyone have the clear headlights in Xenons yet? It seems strange with the popularity of Xenons that it is taking so long for W210 retrofits to hit the market.
