I have found a Mk9……I think Adria twin in Germany

If the headlights need to be changed, where can I get them done? Can I change them myself? Has anyone already done this?
Does the Mk10 (new front) have LEDs that don’t need changing?
Lot of questions ….. sorry

Looks the same as ours. 640 SLB? I would check with the dealer that the lights are flat beam. I've spoken to a Fiat Profesional garage here in UK and they reckoned that even though the lights on mine are LEDs (2024 model) They are RHD. I've imported a number of Ducato's in the past and changing the lights is a pain. Not the physical actual changing but forking out for new lights. These were not LEDs either. Ask the German dealer to do a 'Licht test' as that will determine if they are LHD or flat. Beam benders are fine for travelling and bizzarely are ok for MOT but not for first registration in UK. I have not imported LHD since 2018 so things may have changed. Don't forget that if the vehicle is not new then I think you have to pay import duty as well as VAT, as far as I know. Others may know better.
