There are the OEM jewel lights from the 03-04 C70 and then there are the RealCar projector headlights in either chrome or blackened background. You must import these yourself unless you happen to get in on a groupbuy.

Do note that neither of these aftermarket lights are technically not legal for use in most states, but 90% of places will pass you anyways just because they don't know the difference or don't care.

There are tons of places in Sweden that sell them. Hova, RealCar, Sam Steffansson are a few that have them. I'm sure that they would not mind selling outside the country. Expect to pay close to $700 when all is said and done though. It'd be easier on your pocketbook to go with the clear jewels from the 03-04 C70.

EDIT: Wow, it looks like EST in Canada sells them now.
