My Ride: 2008 535i
Default Downfrade HID/Xenon Headlights

I have an '08 535i I got my son. I am new to BMWs, but I have quickly become a fan.
The car has the factory HID/Xenon headlights and they are a mess. I would like to downgrade to halogens.
I seem to recall that it's a plug and play, but I can't find the thread.
Is this correct, and who would you guys suggest as an economical vendor?
I searched "headlights" and looked through all 3 pages of results, so be gentle to the new member!
