I just bought the bi-xenon depo headlight from ebay and when I install the head light, does the HID supose to ON right away when I turn the switch on or what??

I just installed mine and when I tested it out, the HID won't turn on, is that because I have to go to MB dealer to present the xenon off to on first?

the depo is pretty much plug and play right? 3 connectors from the ballast, and 1 big connector attach to the headlight?

What did I do wrong?

19 viewers and no one reply it? no one has depo head light here or something??

Now hold on a second there sir.. do you actually HAVE an HID kit?

flip

the depo has HID 6000K in it, but my old head light doesn't have HID

Have any pictures of how you wired up the DEPO 6K kit?

Crapp I got it!, actually that large connector to the back of the head light was just loose, and then I put the key to the 2nd position and turned the switch on, and HID worked.

But do I still have to go to MB dealer to set the xenon present ON or not?

When you turn them on, do they flicker or just stay on solid? You may not need to if they just STAY on . Good luck (otherwise, visiting the dealership sounds good :\).

flip

mind providing us with a link where you got the depo headlight and/or part number?

thank you!

Googled it - seemed pretty popular and they've got 'em in stock?

Not flicker at all, just stay solid, and so I turn off and turn it back on and still stay solid, eventhough i didn't put my car key in it.
So If it start flickerin than time to visit mb dealer?

Thanks alot for helping me dude. I'm in the process of finisshing my car, and tomorrow my bodykit, rims, custom grill, muffler will come to my house, can't wait to install them

Not yet, I'm still waiting for the LED turn signal, and H7 bulf for high beam, and then I'll re-intall it again all together after I paint my Wald kit next monday.

mig888, by any chance, are you Indonesian? Coz I saw ur car's pics w/ SFKREW

Haha - no.. I'm one of the rare people who isn't Indo who was a part of SFKREW (have to fix up another car now). They're a great crew though if you were wondering. Are you local?

are you talking about the LED turn signals inside the headlight...if so..do you mind posting the link of where you got them and weather they have the load resistors on them already..thanks..

Any chance anybody know of any cheaper places to get DEPO Headlights with HID kits?

Also, when installing, do you have to take off the bumper?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!

Hey ViprSX,

Does your HID beam straight? Or does it shoot the beam out of proportion?

I've had bad experiences in the past with HID kits.

thanks!

viprsx, what year is your car? hopefully it'll fit with my '07 c350

I don't get how come most DEPO headlights I find on Ebay is for 01-05 W203 models? these wont' fit 06's????

hopefully it does....

it will.

and the '07? the ebay link says '01-'05, and doesn't the headlight housings from '01-'04 slightly different from the '06-'07? i'm askin this because i talked to jim from Performance last month and that was what he said

nope. all the same.

oh great. thanks!

hallelujah for around 600 bucks vs oem 1200 bucks, what a bargin

if things go well for viprsx then i'm gettin mine asap
