There's a member here that used to sell eurospec headlights on occasion. He goes by TheGermanOne but I think he disappeared around last Sep and didn't reply to PMs by other members. Not sure what happened.

Once in a while you might find someone selling a set but it's rare.

If you would like a more cost effective solution, I offer overlays that mimic the Euro headlights. It basically goes over the amber reflector and looks very sleek. Check out the link in my sig for more information regarding the overlays. If you need more info, my email is phidinh16@gmail.com

see i dont mind spending a little bit of money... i really want new headlights because recently i made a dumb mistake of trying "clean" my headlights with one of those headlight cleaning kits from the store... WRONG MOVE!!!.... those things are not for new cars... they left my headlight all scratched and stuff... i tried to buff it out and its somewhat unnoticable now.. but its not like what it used to be you know?

If you can live without the adaptive function, check www.umnitza.com. A pair goes for $1300 without the D1S bulb, ballast and ALC (adaptive light control module).
