SL 320 Homologation France and Xenon replacements

Decided to 'import' my UK reg RHD SL 320 into France and was quoted a ridiculous amount for replacing the xenon headlamps to dip to the right. Anyone had similar experience, or knows where to buy the headlamps cheaply - ie ex-accident(not front-impact) or other source either in France, Belgium or Germany.

Answering my own post!!! There is a switch on the xenon to switch to symmetric beam - is this enough for the french controle technique I wonder!!

Nice one Michele... I thought the Pig might know the answer to this as he's got a bit of a thing about xenons...
