LED headlight bulbs???
Has anyone successfully gotten LED headlights to work in the C230? I have a 2007 and I have tried them with "canbus" error boxes but I still get the error and the lights do not stay on.

we have two offering. Our personal preference is the Hybrid kit that pairs a Hylux ballast with Morimoto bulbs, but some prefer a full Morimoto kit. Both are high end, reliable, and great performers.

You replied to a 5 year old post buut thats OK because I'm researching
LED bulbs to replace the H7's. I see some have fans, some don;t.
Don't want them to melt my headlights. I also see adapter kits.
Soi whats needed to install LED's inside the stock headlig housing?
Will they clip in like the incandescent ones?
Do I need ro worry about heat?

get both of those, I say this because I just had the h7 lad lights with no adapter box on my w203 and I had randomly flashing headlights due to not having that adapter box

Where did you mount the resistiors? Those are very short cords
and they need big *** heat sinks and bolted the body somewhere where they
won't do any damage.
