Yup, straight swap for the standard units.

Can be fitted in 10 mins easily.

Headlights with silver or smoked internals.

They may not be legal though... check that they are RHD(right hand drive) spec not LHD.

LHD spec.

Wont pass MOT, but neither will (*should) a car without a CAT, reflectors on the rear, front numberplate, etc.

Swap the lights over, 5 mins a side before the MOT. Jobs a good'un.

Silver internals are on the shelf and ready to go.

I've never had a problem with mine - just adjust them as best as you can so they point to the left and not into oncoming traffic.

it's not the lense that's the problem, the housing is moulded differently.. the bulb mounting are angled to direct the light towards the RH curb... bout 3-5 degrees or more, and it's not possible to adjust them to compensate for it.
