you can do a straight swap of the whole headlight unit.
Do a search in For Sale & Wanted. Slimer was selling some sets, not sure if still available or not. Bodsys Brake Bible

Not really. Xenon's need a Ballast unit as well as the actual bulb.
Pete Bell of Bell Auto Services did a Xenon conversion on his D4, The same could be done on the D3.
Hids4U (site sponsor) had this to say on the subject....
