Yes, I bought all of my Eurolights on ebay.

My individual purchase prices on four sets of Eurolights ranged from $85 to
$250, which I figure averaged around $150. These lights were all non-turbo
Type 44 Eurolights, which work very well if you can live with the way they
change the look of the front end of the car. Your mileage and personal
taste may vary (YMAPTMV?).

Ironically, the most expensive set I purchased were the Asian knock-offs
without any corner lights or connectors while the least expensive set I
purchased were either German Hella or Bosch with amber European corner
lights, connectors, and rubber grommets.
