Yup. You need 4 of those bulbs

alexyanglaw

yeah, make sure you get 4 bulbs for the eyelids, I went to the shop to get another set after I noticed I need 4 of them.

Hi there,

many thanks for the tip on polarg bulbs. look a treat now

Does anyone know if you can change the main interior light and footwell lights too? is it easy to do? Bulb types?

many thanks

Installed the Polarg bulbs...look good....much better than stock. They match my 5500k Luminics perfect.

I'm thinking of installing the utlra white (luminec (or whatever it is) bulbs) for my fogs and high beams. Since their both H7 and I want them to match my 6000K xenon low beams. I'm curious though is it difficult to install the high beam bulbs and the fog lights?

Mr Purple

Hi there,

high beams bulbs are quite straight forward. Instructions are in the manuals or find it here. http://www4.mercedes-benz.com/e/cars...en/N24FA9.html


As for the fog lights i am not sure. Personally i am not going to mess with with the stock ones as i have intelligent light system and dont want it to go wrong with non oem bulbs.

So they are the same type as License Plate lights. I just ordered the PIAA X-treme White for my license plate lights, hopefully it will look the same or close to Lexus. If they are white and bright enough, I will do the same to the eyelids as well.

Here is the link that I ordered,

Or if you want the purplish white H.I.D. look, here is the one,

Fogs are easy, you have to remove the screws from the plastic mesh around the fog light housing...then you can access the bulb on the back of the housing.

Are the 168 bulb type the same as 194? Some site have them as 168/194.

misterng

Yes, they are the same.

Looks very nice!!! I might have to get those. I wonder how they would look with my new Smoked Eyelid overlays. Its worth a shot.

Im not sure if its just me but i took a peak at the eye brow bulb sockets and yes i got the covers off but i thought it was a pain in the a$$ to pull out the bulbs and its wiring ?? I was afraid of pulling it out to hard and ripping the wires so i gave up for now popped the covers back on uughhhhh

micropower99

thanks

Mr Purple

Hi there,

it may look like a mass of wires but if you gently tug on the end of the wire you will find that the bulb holder comes out very easily. You shouldnt need to tug hard at all, the bulb holder clips really easily back into place.

Thanks! I'll probably order mine this weekend.

Here's a site that's only $6.95 p/pair.

i only have p1, no xenons...

i'm not sure which bulbs i can stick in my car. i like the look of the 6000k bulbs but these guys on ebay really have no idea what theyre talking about with regard to whether or not the bulbs are usable for me.

advice?

misterng

Thanks, but I prefer PIAA or Mtec because they are brighter than other brands (and more expensive too).

[QUOTE]Try looking on ebay for phillips extreme. These are 80% brighter than standard
You should need H7 for dipped and main beam.

FYI - I bought a pair of Pilot today at Kragens for $2.99 and they look the same as the stocks. Please learn from my mistake and don't buy anything from Kragens or Pilot.

How do you pop the black cover (pictured) off the top to access the light assembly? Are there screws or clips to remove? It feels like it's secured at "A" in the picture somehow, but I don't want to force anything. "B" in the picture looks like it may have clips or something there to secure it. Any help would be appreciated.

omgitselaine

Actually i didnt even take that cover off. If you take a peek underneath that you'll see the circular slots for all the bulbs. My problem was that i was nervous taking out the bulbs due to the wiring but havent tried since that first time. These guys make it sound so easy so ill try again perhaps tomorrow since itll be nice and sunny in the nyc/nj area

micropower99

Hey, yea I'm having the same problem as you. :p

Mr Purple

Hi there, i promise you it is easy! - the wiring loom has a bulb holder on the end of it. it just a case of giving the wiring loom a very light tug and it will come out. if my camera was working i'd take a pic.

Mr Purple

hello, you dont need to take off the black cover. you can slide your hand in to access all the bulbs holders.

mbrover06

After you take off the wire, how do you go about taking off the white plastic piece to get access to the bulb?
