After the installation, any error messages on the computer? or was the kit plug'n play? cause I thought you need to go to the dealer to change the bulb setting from reading the prevoius threads
Car looks great btw!! Love the HID lights!!

Thanks
result in good beam pattern. invariably, w/o changing bowl and/or projector
lens, you'll end up with a huge hot spot in the middle with depreciating light
drop off in flattened, oval fashion. would love to see the beam pattern to
see if you lucked out an ended up with a nice beam.

Hello Untouchable08,
I would like to find out some more about the light kit and where you purchased them from. Can you give some more details.

What about an '02 that has the frosted look lenses???? Is there a kit that changes out the lenses to the clear ones as well or do I need to buy the whole works for an '05 or '06 from the dealer???? Idea of cost for this???? I'm getting an '02 C32 next week and would like to change the lights. Thanks!!!
Oh, and awsome photos too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
