05 C230 low beam repclacement bulb

I have 2005 C230 kompressor sedan, does anybody know what brand is the best for replacing my low beam bulb? I am thinking of PIAA, but if anybody know a better brand, please let me know. Also, Does anybody know the specs of c230 low beam (watt, etc)? Thanks!

I can't believe some salty old forum veteran hasn't yelled "STFF" at you... I think they're slippin' these days. Anyhow, here's a little info to get you started. Then try using the search function from the main C Class forum page, "Search this forum".

Hope that helps... there's a million other posts about your exact question.

H7 - 55w is what you need. The PIAA product number is 17655. The PIAAs are a little over 50 US Dollars.

With that much money it might be better to buy an HID kit. Some members got them for 40 US Dollars. They "Last Longer" and give better light output.

Good Luck

By the way Welcome to the Forum

If you need to replace a headlight bulb, I wouldn't even bother with a replacement halogen bulb and just get a HID kit. There are a couple of sponsors that I'm pretty sure sell them.
