Replacement Headlights

Recently noticed that one of my headlights has kicked the bucket. Also realized that my new to me mini has crazy expensive h9 xenons. I know that to keep the two headlights looking the same i need to replace both but I really don't want to put out $200 for the pair. If i have to spend that much money I would love to swap to those new fangled LED thingys. Figured i could just do some googlin' and find a quick and easy replacement but I cant seem to find a single kit that looks like it will be plug and play. All of the plugs are different lookin' and i just want want to bother with cutting and soldering.

I find it hard to believe that no one makes a direct plug and play kit for H9 Xenons for the r53 but gosh darnit I cant find one. Has anyone run across this?

I sure would appreciate any tips or tricks yall have run across. Thx !

Have you checked with ALLMAG that is a vendor here for a used unit? They are over in Tampa.
