My white C230 8k hids in headlights and fogs,interior leds too
have had the 8k hid kits in the car for 3 days now,seems great so far
no issues just plug and play
i didnt want to buy a cheap ebay kit,so i got these kits for $100 each,got the resistors for free,free shipping and free 2 year warranty
also put 2 12led boards in the dome lights

How's your headlight's ouput? I installed HID kit in my clear headlights, just like yours and the output is messed up
. I think Kevlah here in this forum had the same problem before he upgraded to BiX.

I was going to ask about that. I've installed 6 HID kits in my MBs or my dad's MBs until now and not once I've ever used resistors

It was usually plug and play WITHOUT resistors. Did you do the XENON coding in your car?

Where did you put your ballasts for the HIDs? I've ordered my kit and I'll be installing it next Saturday, but so far with everything together I don't see a real good place to put the ballast.

What I meant was the pattern of your headlight on the ground. Is it the same like when you still had halogen bulbs?

finding a place to put the ballast in the engine compartment is easy,the fogs were a *****.
the driver side fog assembly is right against the washer fluid tank,i had to mount the ballast to the washer assembly bracket.
the passenger side fog,you will have alot of room to decide were you want to put the ballast.

if you take a look at the first pic.you will see the connectors on the resistors
very easy,one side plugs into the ballast,the other side plugs into the hid light harness
i will try and make a little drawing later on.lol

yea
inferno audio in cumberland rhode island
i would think they ship orders aswell
i tried out their led's for the license plate bulbs,no go on that..they just flickered.
so i ordered some leds online to use as my license plate lights,and im going to see what i can do with that once they come in' so i don't have flickering issues
