You will have to buy an HID kit since your existing ones won't work, if you have them. The other option is to just run standard halogen bulbs.

You can find hid depo headlights to, if that's what you have.

I'll like to know about the quality to, my lights are ugly and I'll like to replace it.

They are plug and play, but i don't know about quality.

I purchase tail lights, the look really nice, but connector quality is not the best, i have had to tight the plug a few times.

But maybe someone can give some review about this lights, i have purchase aftermarket lights before and they turn to get yellow kind of fast, the last one i bought last until i sold the truck and what i did was put wax on then every time i wax the car and between wax.

Halogen to halogen should be plug and play.

The person in the link below did the swap with HID and seems to be quite happy:

Are you looking to to change just the lenses or looking to mod the inside as well? I've modded a few members lights here

Headlights

Hello Guy's I'm new to this site and have a question about your headlights mods.I have a 2004 E500 with active curve headlights that do not work as they should. Do you guys repair these headlights and also can you give them the look that I'm seeing in the picture above?

i would not recommend to buy aftermarket headlight, so many problems. adjustment for height is not working correctly, the optic focus is bad, quality is poor. After going through all the troubles and my labor to replace the aftermarket headlight, i decide to buy OEM headlight. That said ... Well done !!! it works GREAT and happy ending.
