What to tell dealership for HID's?

My dealership has no idea (or is playing dumb) on setting my xenon=present on my '02 C240. I did read that if I give them instructions, it shouldn't be a problem..

What exactly do I tell them to do? Or the technician..

Thanks!

This is typical of the dealerships.. I think some people have printed out instructions (I don't have them, sorry) but I still think that my dealerships would tell me no. It would probably be easier and cheaper to buy error eliminators.

Would error eliminators be of the same effect as a relay?

the instructions are on another thread thats printable. if you have a good relationship with your sa, lot of people have gotten them to do it for free since it only takes like 2min.

I think I'm going to ask my dealer about that next time I'm in. No Matt, not the one in Gainesville (although that might be fun).

I'd expect any dealer to look at you as if you had three heads.

I'm glad I never had to deal with eliminators or STAR adjustments.
