Price wise you are looking at around $200 for the switch cluster, and headlights are going to depend on if you buy new/used and if you have to buy modules separately, but plan on at least $1500 unless you wait around for some good deals. Coding would just be adding options 552 and 5AC to the car after you install the new parts.
If you buy Euro headlights, make sure they are for the continent, not the United Kingdom. If the latter they will shield the wrong side of the street.
