Changing frosted headlights to clear?????
I'm buying an '02 C32 that has factory Xenons with the frosted lenses and I want to update to the clear lenses like the '05. Can I use the balasts, etc. that are in the car and just get the clear lenses or do I have to swap out everything. I don't have to have the Bi-Xenon projector types, just want clear instead of frosted. Please help!!!

I heard and believe that you CAN remove the 'frosted' cover of our dated lights but I think some or a few have run into problems in trying to do so

easiest way is to get bixenons from from steve and sell your stock one on ebay.
another alternative is to get DEPO headlight assembly and somehow "transfer" ballasts over...
