upgrading from halogen to black xenon headlights

My girlfriend should be picking up a Countryman this week. Has everything she wanted except the black xenons...is there any way to get them? I know for the hardtop Mini offers a retrofit, but I don't think they do for the Countryman. Any ideas? Has it been done?

It is possible, but you need to buy a new pair in the dealer (around $1000 each) or search for the used ones on ebay.

This is more complicated project to pass. That is not just replacing the headlight. I am in the middle of the journey... I am opening the separate topic to describe my adventure with xenon mod
