Yeah agree on that... I reckon the LED STRIP won't look too bad but maybe the angel eyes are gonna make it look try hard BMW..just gotta see once it's all lit up to decide though .

+1. The LED color on the link with the E-Class looks too aftermarket. It's not a strong LED strip like that of the new MB/Audi. I'd still spend the extra $100-200 to buy a used set of OEM's. Afterall, if they go bad you can get parts to fix it and you'll have the clean OEM look.

Have patience my friend. I am just as anxious as you, but I haven't heard anything back yet. I will advise ASAP when I get the word.
My plan is to get my front bumper license plate screw holes filled and painted at the same time get those bi-xenon head lights installed. The new front end would look cleaner and nicer. Now if I can only find a body color (silver) carbon front lip to go along with my project, that would be awesome!

everything is expensive with mercs here. My car came with the original standard bumpers (smiley face bumper) lol an then I got a full original AMG bodykit with a Clk 55 pre facelift bumper (2003-2005 style) and I paid $5000 AUD and that was after I had gone through an insurance claim because my rear bumper had been damaged and I and I had to trade my front bumper and side skirts.A year later I decided to trade the clk55 bumper for the Clk 63 bumper and paid $2500 extra.. Bumper would've cost 5-6K PLUS because my car needed the update brackets etc.

Finally the lights have arrived
The seller forwarded me these photos of the lights which just arrived at his shop in Socal.
I was told this headlight has dual projector, but not bi-xenon, it CAN be bi-xenon only if you put second xenon HID system to the inner projector then it can be bi-xenon.
I haven't purchased them yet, so I don't know how they will look when turned on. I also don't have any info on the price.
When I get more info, I will post it here. Maybe I'll get the first set and have them installed on my W209.
Can I get a list of who's interested in buying?

Sorry for the dumb question, but what's the difference between projector and bi-xenon? What buld type are used in these?
I'm interested in buying these but I need all the info first since mine will be shipped to sweden.

I like the dual projector look, like the SLR. might be interested depending on the price & shipping if I can use my factory HID's with them, aka, ballast mounting capability.
