Hey im always browsin this forum, just wanted to get some look alike headlights to xenons but didnt wanna pay the price.
Just wanted to check if anyone knew if the 05 headlights fit the 06?
The ad says w203 05s . Please let me know. Thank you for your input.

Yes, they fit. All w203 model headlights (w/ exception to the c55) should be compatible.

just don't try to put C-Coupe headlights on a C-Sedan.

if you have an '06 without bixenon headlights shouldn't you already have the regular clear headlights?

i say just buy a xenon hid kit.

drexappeal

Yeah. Sorry 'bout that. I meant to specify "sedan", but glad you chimed in Carlos.

drexappeal

I concur, if you're not wanting to fork up the cash for real bi-x.

I HAVE XENONS 6300K FROM XENON KING.
JUST DONT WANNA SPEND 2GS ON BIX ON A LEASED CAR, I THINK I CAN FIT THE XENONS IN THESE AND ITLL LOOK DECENT.
HOPEFULLY, NOT WANTING TO GO CRAZY WITH THIS.
Thanks for all of your help!!

That's fine too. What's with the all caps?

06blkSS

Haha sorry at my job when i do applications i have to do them in caps.
How do you think it will look?
Decent at least? or is it waste?

search the forum - there's a guy here that took a bunch of pics after he upgraded his halogens with HID's.

Since you have the 2006 halogen headlights, the housing is exactly the same as 2005, so you won't need to swap out the housing. There have been a few people on here that have already put in a HID kit in their clear halogen housings.

Tricky thing with Benz is that there is a function that needs to be switched using Star Diagnose to indicate that HID is present. That being said, there are also HID kits out there that allow you to use the HID w/o having to do the Star Diagnose HID identification.

This topic has been discussed several times before. Try the advanced search for "HID" or "Xenon" and specify your search to the w203 forums. There have been a lot of good threads that'll help you decide.

Haha no, i know that, i have the HID in now.....they look awesome , could never do w/o them and it was a pain to get mb center to change my xenon present.
But i was just asking personal opinion how my HID kit will look in those blk lights, thanks for your input

drexappeal

Oh, I see. Your initial post didn't state that you were thinking of getting the DEPO (ebay) knock-off projectors w/ the black housing. Gotta be more specific when you start a thread.

My stance is, I don't really trust aftermarket headlight housings (but that's just my own personal fear of anything going wrong with my headlights while driving).

I think the Xenon's will look really nice in the projector lights and the black housing is really unique. I don't know the quality. I'm pretty sure the DEPO lights have been discussed in another thread too.

thanks man u have been more than helpful!

06blkSS

ill b sure to post pics. THANKS!

yeuchau

it's be pretty decent, but you might also need to take it to dealer to set the xenon present
