Why don't you just pop your hood and take a look?

Oh, the eyelids. Yeah, T10 and you need to get ones that have the CAN-BUS built into it so you won't have any bulb out warnings.

Lol I don't know why i'm struggling so much with the specs of the c250. I figured it wasn't too different from the old model aside from a different engine and some cosmetics.

Are people who are installing kits on 2012 non lighting pkg using the stock reflectors? I'd like to see a pic of this cause it seems it would be blinding..

I've had HIDs on a different car with reflectors and they are extremely blinding. If you don't really care, no one is stopping you, but if you want projectors, you could retrofit them to your headlights.

actually if you notice on facelifted c classes, the headlight has a cut off when its on, kind of like projectors, all thanks to a small mirror right above the bulb at a perfect right angle. so i would imagine that even with hids, it wouldnt blind the car right in front of you as much.
