Hi,

I've got a silver c320 2002 and just installed my clear corner lenses... although a bit loose, tight enough and i don't think it will come off..
the problem: the bulbs..
should i get the amber bulbs (dunno which type though) or keep the clear ones...
the clear ones are too yellowish and don't fit the OEM xenons.. and i really don't like the amber bulbs either..
is there anyway i can have a white bulb? (paint or something)
or should i get the prepainted lens although i'm afraid the light will pass thru since it's silver..
Thanks for opinions..

I assume your car uses 1156 as the E55, I'm using APC blue lights (get the darkest you can get on this brand), this is the closest you can get to the Xeon lights, they do't really look blue but it is amost white (very little yellow), they are not as bright as the OEM but they still show good on a bright sunny day.

Hope this helps.

so this is for the corner bulbs?
If it is, do you know where i can get those APC lights?

I used Osram/Sylvania amber bulbs that were labeled 194NA for the clear side lenses. Just over $2 with tax. The amber bulb is really not visible from behind.

im about to do the same thing as soon as the lenses arrive, any day now. 2 dollar 194NA's

Can we use the bulb from autodynamic? It's 194/168 though, is it the same?

Also went with the amber bulbs, 194NA, behind the clear lenses as that matches the look of the Turn Signals in the mirrors and above the low beams.

I wouldnt use APC. They will discolor after a bit and will become yellow. Use Polar or any other hyper white bulb from a Japanese tuner shop.
