C230 Coupe Headlights
So im still a newwwb and could always use some good advice. I was thinkin bout gettin some new hids for my c230 coupe but i hate the look of the stock headlights and thinkin bout just spendin my money on gettin some new headlights instead. I gave ebay a look but many of them dont fit the coupe and im afraid of gettin the wrong ones. anyone got any tips on some good ones to get? i saw valexv had bi-xenons but i guess those are rare to get? and im ballin on a budget lol. any help would be gooood

Factory Bi-X can be retrofitted, you can pick them up from several sources. They were a rare option, but a fairly common Mod. They are, however, not cheap, but way cool. Should be easy to find in the forum, lots of discussion.

They sell the BiX headlamps (projectors) on Ebay at a very expensive price but I think that is the only place that i've seen them lately. There is nothing aftermarket, so the cheapos are crappy.
If you just wanna get rid of the frosted headlamps you could buy the 2005 clear regulars and retrofit them with Xenon. Unfortunately not the same results than with the BiX projectors. They are around 1800 for the pair (if you can find them).
Also, you could try Steve, he might have some
