Wanted: US headlights

Hi folk
Anyone here willing to sell me their US spec headlights for a W126 sedan
They need to be gen1 type '79-'85 only

I'm desperately keen to acquire some, so please, if you've updated to euros please let me know if you still have your old one's - remember, I only require the old gen1 type

Thanks all, Damon

I wish I could do a swap with you but, as we drive on the opposite side of the road to you guys, the glass is cut differently so would be illegal over there

I'll check that link though, thanks
