Best place to buy set of Headlights

Hi guys! I need to replace both full headlights for my 2015 e63s. It has the dynamic light package, LED etc.

Anyone have a lead on where I can pick up a set? They look very pricey but wanted to ask here.

Maxknuckles,
What happened to the headlights that they need to be replaced?
I had both of mine replaced because the original units were always fogging up heavily. Especially in the winter time. Dealer installed desiccant packs in each service hole. That solved the fogging but the packs started leaking over time and shortened the headlight ECU which is directly below the service opening. I had a hard time getting this one approved as dealer error. I ended up having to pay ~ 1200.- out of my pocket. They installed both new headlights, 2400.- each.
They don't fog up anymore, have different part #'s too. I guess the design was improved.
That was 2 years ago. So far so good.

Has anyone had success in replacing their NA headlights with the Euro spec version (without the amber sidemarkers)?

I have euro headlights, probably not suitable for the US.

I think I have a driver side headlight - the tab might be broken. Let me check my office tomorrow. It's from a MY16 with full LED
