Hid
kits are a joke.
Your headlight bucket and lens were not designed for them and thus the reason they only light up the road for 10 feet in front of the car.
A flashlight strapped to the hood would be a better driving light.
ALL SHOW AND NO GO.
BUT HEY,ITS YOUR MONEY

i used the vvme's till a week ago when one of the ballast blew. the shop blamed it on the eagle eye headlights i bought
who knows if its true.since i drove around with one 35w and one 55w, and no shops around carries 55w, i decided to swap both to 35w. apparently they are made by bosch with lifetime warranty.

I own a car with OEM Bi-Xenons and I have a 55w HID kit in my C230. The C230's beam pattern is not as sharp, obviously, but what you said in your post is complete
. The C230 held onto the factory pattern, including forward range and width. Very, very nice illumination.

no need for error eliminators with the xenon setting.

so if i got my HID's professionally installed and i bought the error code eliminator, they would know how to install it? or would i have to tell them where to put it?
also, i have the same problem as OP but haven't been to the dealer to get xenon set to present yet. if i do that, is there a chance i won't need to buy this? if i just bought them instead of going to the dealer, would that also take care of the problem without having to get xenon set to present?
thanks guys. sorry for all the questions, but i just want to see what my options are. thanks.
