Wow, they were $119 not that long ago, prices keep dropping. Good to know they are good, maybe I'll try their bi-xenons in my wife's Wrangler.

kevblah

yeah im so excited, i think i might try out their fog light hids first to see if they're any good

yeuchau

u have the same kit without lightbulb error msg but got all those other erros???

KIRA

dude we should set a group buy with all other benz models and ask for $50 a pair if we can get like 100sets

You put them in your depos right? How hard was the install. Post those pics!

Wow, what a price...guess I know what I'm getting my friend for his birthday! ('06 Civic SI).

Also, not to shoot anybody's excitement down but I heard that with these HID kits...its either a hit or miss...some people may have the error...then again a handful might not. But hey, if it doesn't work on your MB...try it on your other cars...or sell it to a friend!

I guess no one is discouraged by the computer meltdown I had?
Hmmm....
Caveat Emptor

Cloudz

no someone else had those errors

kevblah

even if there is an error? cant u just exit out of it like you would with any other lighting error, it doesnt affect anything, does it?

KIRA

you get message and your light wont' be on

kevblah

damnnnn, that sucks...
in that case, wouldnt u be able to return it because the seller page says guaranteed to work w/o errors..

kevblah

im thinking about getting the 6000k for my low beams, and im not sure if i want to match the same K for fog lights or if i wanted to do like 10k

rlee02135

match it....

old C230 (8K, 12K Fog):



C32 (8K ALL):

kevblah

now that i think about it, how much light output are u sacrificing from 6000k to 8000k? blue looks so much cooler, but i dont want to spend a few hundred bucks to have less light coming out the front

kevblah

Is there anyone else that is planning on or thinking about trying this ebay seller's HID kits?

Buellwinkle

I want them for the rear parking lights.

There's a whole thread on this, I had to go to a Mercedes shop to clear the SRS error. But the car had ESP, BAS, ABS, SRS, and brake lining failure,
along with being in limp home mode, and running in 2nd gear only.

After pulling all the fuses and putting them back, all the errors except SRS cleared. Scared the sh_t out of me. That could have been an expensive problem.
But the mechanic still couldn't get my BAS controller to talk to the
DAS, and said the CAN buss was spewing crap that made it impossible to read anything on it....

So, everything seems fine, but according to him, there's still unresolved issues.
If they worked for you, great. For me the problem started when I turned them on with the engine running. Engine off, lights on, engine on, worked fine, but then it would be too hard to remember, and risk being able to only drive in 2nd gear.

It cost about 100 bucks cash to have him clear the errors, not really do any diagnostic time.

im in for these too you guys lmk how they are i read 2 negative posts about these but i heard frum a few ppl that they seem to work fine, dunno if i should risk it or not hmm

yeuchau

do you think that's just a waste of money??

AndySays

If these wont work for the headlights, you guys can always switch it to your fogs If I hadn't bought my fog kit already I would jump on this and save myself $100

A few of my friends have actually bought a few of these kits. The majority of bulbs burned out before half a year.
