Default Classic Morettes

Is ~£300 the usual price for the classic morettes? Also, are they geared towards RHD cars or are they universal and aim-able?

What's a good place to pick up a set?

Thanks!

Yep, that's the usual asking price, new. They DO pop up on ebay occasionally though.

The light units are Cibie, the outer, larger pair doing main beam and dip, and the inner, smaller pair, being an extra main beam. IIRC, they are actually a Cibie driving light lens.

This means that the outers WILL be available in LH dip and RH dip, the former being what you need on UK roads and the latter in Europe. You MAY have to order in the RH dip ones as they are unlikely to be stocked by UK dealers.
As far as "aim-able" is concerned, DO be aware that they are available in two versions, WITH electrical levelling, and WITHOUT. Choose the former if your car has it, etc.

Demon Tweeks, mine came from TSL, but I'm sure that other dealers sell them. Try a few of the advertiosers on s/n. I'm NOT sure who the importers are.
