Question 2009 E88 Convertible Headlight Upgrade Question

Hi mates, just got a 2009 120i E88 Convertible, and the headlights are all in halogen style. Is there any chance I could upgrade the front headlight to genuine BMW Bi-Xenon style like the one in below's link? Or any other better opinions? Thanks guys.

Can't buy that it's a USA spec headlight for left hand drive.

You'll need the lights, footwell module, and self levelling sensors and some harnesses

Thanks for the answer, I've notice that now. Is there any entire package I could buy online or locally? Any recommendation online shops?

I just saw your 135i, it looks awesome!! Are they standard when you bought the car?

Buy used stuff on ebay from private seller wrecking cars. All the BMW wreckers in Australia charge an arm and a leg for anything.

Yes my car came with xenons as standard.

I think its possible to just retrofit the lights without the leveling sensors, as I knew someone who retrofitted xenons without them and it seemed to work.
