Xenon for C320

guys,

just curious can I swap my Halogen headlights of C320 2001 model with another headlights (factory ones) that has Xenon on it. I am not sure whether I need ballasts that come separate from the units or the headlight units themselves already include the ballasts.

Also, how difficult is installation of xenon headlights and removal of my current headlights?

thanks

If you get factory xenon headlights the ballasts are built in to the headlight assembly. I believe the bumper cover needs to be removed to swap the headlights assemblies. Instructions on how to do this have been posted. Please use the search function if you wish to find them.

I think someone "rrf" has the regular xenons for sale. His car has the original xenons but he bought the bi-xenons. E-mail him if you're interested.
