1990 R129 Euro headlights

Does anyone know of an online or real-world source (in Canada or US) of euro-spec headlights for 1990 r129?

It was easy finding them for my 300E, but this is proving difficult. The car currently has Euro lights but they're for a RHD drive market and I'd like to get LHD.

I would be interested in these too if they are available for a reasonable price. The DOT headlights are just garbage, and the Xenons are outrageously expensive.

What bulbs do they use? H4? I would be more for it if i didn't have to just put a new soft-top on it.

Try Adsitco.com Look under accessories. They don't show them for the r129 chassis but I believe some folks have gotten them there.

Here's a direct link (seems to work).
http://www.adsitco.com/product.asp?ID=7118

I ordered and installed these one year ago and have been loving them! Even though my car is a 2001, I put on the amber turn signals. Looks great
