Changing headlight bulbs for 08 c300 sport

Does anyone know how to do it?

I referred to my mb manual but there are missing pages...weird! Gotta bring it back to the dealership.

Do you have the bi-xenon's?

Why are you wanting to change them?

Reason for my asking is that I have bi-xenons and had gone back to the dealer to get one that had gone dark replaced. Turned out not to be the bulb (ignitor in xenon talk).

if you have the standard bulbs, its simple, but you have to make sure you put the bulb in right side up, it does matter, i had a bulb go out, and stopped at a dealership by my work and got a bulb, like $16.00 dollars, and they offered to put it in, well turns out the guy put it in upside down, and there was a huge difference in the lighting, it made the bulb point slightly down which made it about half as bright, finally figured out what the problem was. There is a panel you pop off, twist the bulb holder out and change bulb, put back in.
