Foglight Bulb Replacement question
Does anyone with a pre-facelift non-sport W203 know if the following bulbs would work for the fogs on my 04 C240?
They are the Philips Crystal Vision 9006 4300K HB4's.

If you haven't done it yet, it's a real treat to swap them out. Make sure you like those bulbs, because you won't want to swap them back out if you don't like them.

My Ride
I was able to slip an HID ballast and install a horizontal HID bulb without removing my bumper. I undid a couple of the plastic retainer plugs and squeezed my hand up in there. I had a little arm rash by the time I was done, but it was pretty easy and I don't have small hands. The bulbs that came out were 90 degrees but the HID's are horizontal which made for some careful placement when installing to not jam up the long HID bulb. I halogen should be no problem.

Thanks for your replies, fellas.
Yeah, it looks like the fogs won't be as easy to replace as the sidemarkers but it'll get done nonetheless.
I actually need to do something about the foglight lenses as well because they don't match for some reason. One is the clear type and the other has vertical lines running all through it.
Maybe I should just think about investing in an AMG bumper instead of wasting $40 on foglight lenses, as suggested by a member.
What do you think? I gotta start looking around in the FS forum.

Are there Any other bulbs that you would suggest that would better match my Bi-X? Im not sure if there are, and I dont want to go the HID route at the moment.
