Best place to purchase 09-12 R1 upper & headlight conversion?

I'm curious to where the cheapest place to get the kit from new? I was going to just put the 09 bodywork back on the front of my white/red R1, but after screwing around with crappy eBay sellers I'm going to just spend the cash for the conversion.

Here's what I believe I need.

1.) 2012 Upper Fairing in OEM "bluish white" color
2.) 2012 headlight
3.) 2009 "R1" logo for the upper cowl.
4.) any wires or plugs needed for the conversion.

Are the windscreens the same for both the 09-11 and the 12+?

If you guys don't mind post up prices and locations of places you have used yourself or know of.

Thanks,
Randy

Anyone of you who has already done this, that knows exactly whats needed?

Was planning on buying all my parts from http://www.yamahapartshouse.com/ since I already have a shopping cart full of stuff i need.
Acctualy thinks its kinda strange that there`s no parts list on the forum for this convension already :nopity:

Headlight, front cowling and the two brackets that hold the air inlet covers ( 09 to 11 ) doesn't have the brackets, that's all you really need, other members get the small rubber dampeners for the headlight but they're really not necessary.

Quick parts list for other who wonder about the same:
:fact

12-13 Headlight Assy : 1KB-84300-00-00 $382.05
Trim 2x : 20S-28376-00-00 $5.9
Body, Front Upper 1 UR FOR SMX : 1KB-2835G-00-P3 $152.53 Think this is the black or matte black one, that I need. Other coloers require a different fairing> parts number!!
Left Stay, Side : 11KB-2831U-00-00 $2.95
Right Stay, Side : 11KB-2832U-00-00 $2.95

Total = $546.33
From http://www.yamahapartshouse.com/

To answer my own question regarding the upper stray bracket, 09-13 has the same part number.



Pleace correct me if there is more needed.
