Maybe search salvage parts. They're ridiculously expensive otherwise.

Are the triple beam plug and play with vehicles originally equipped with standard? You may want to make sure the connectors are the same before you go through the trouble of trying to replace them.

Highly impractical, if not impossible, to change "standard" single beam headlights with triple beam headlight and vice versa. Some, but most likely not all, of the differences:

The wiring and connectors are different.
The headlight ECUs are different. (More functions to control and power with triple beam headlights than single beam ones.)
Turn signal lights are internal to the triple beam headlight unit; whereas, they're external to the single beam unit.
Shoot, even the location of the headlight aim adjustment screws are different so some panels in the engine compartment's headlight area would need to be changed to enable access for headlight aiming
