E92 Pre-LCI to LCI tail lights conversion

After searching around the forum, a few threads have said it was possible and many people have done it but most of those posts were around 2011/2012.

What would be the easiest and best way to change my 08 328xi tail lights to LCI tail lights? I'm pretty non-tech savy, so the easiest/best method without breaking the bank if possible

Where would be the cheapest place to buy at the moment? Located in Canada but can ship to an US city (Bellingham).

Thanks!

Figured someone would give me a bad time on the price. Didn't know so I played it safe!

Is this for e90 or e92?
I purchased aftermarket tail lights for my e92 from a company called DEPO and have no problems at all. I was worried that water would get in, but I have gone over them with a pressure washer when washing the car multiple times and so far no problems.
