Hi Poohbah
I have looked at re silvering my light reflectors and was also shocked at the price to have this done ($250 each or slight discount for 2 or more). Have sent you a PM on suppliers of OEM H1 headlights which are only available for LHD. There is the option to purchase new and fit good RHD lenses, but only if state laws require it for registration purposes.
cheers

- quoted the same as Bonno for re-silvering here in Melbourne without guarantee of the quality of outcome!

- Highwood; 60 pounds each w/o parking light; also available with parking light

- Exchanged reproduction lenses on both high & low beam units from Highwood with my original carello lenses, 
thus RHD
- Replaced halogen low beam bulbs with JW Speaker LED; part no. 990001

- You might have a problem with LHD to RHD conversion with parking lights!

Fit USA Carello headlight bases so that you can then put a good quality replacement light in - Cibie being a good example.
