Looks great! Did you end it up installing capacitors? Did all pins from my schematic worked out? Let me know

no i did not install capacitors, no need, we just had to initiate the car to recognize xenon onboard ( by scanner) and all went smooth. thanks a lot.

still have the issue of manual tuning, but i cannot find screw on location 1. its hidden

Yes, regular (non bi-xenon) halogen headlights assemblies have only one screw, bi-xenon assembly have two, so it looks like you just did xenon kit installation on your original headlamp, right?

What I have done is: I did remove my original halogen headlamps and install headlamps from C63, that way I am not going blind incoming traffic...

No, i replaced by headlights completely by Original Bi-xenon headlights from a donor car too. they are genuine MB Bi-xenon headlights. the highbeam is turning the middle highbeam on and opening the flaps of the Bi-xenon too.
anyway , i ll check what the screw i have is doing, i think it should be enough if it s the up-down level.

Hi mate, any chance that you could help me? I'm trying to upgrade from 2010 C Class Halogen Headlights to Bi xenons headlights from 2011 sport C class, halogen lights connector (yellow) has 10pin with 10 wires and Bi xenons has 14pin with 9 wires going in, I just wanna cut the cables from 10pin and join them to the 9 cables coming out from 14pin connectors, getting confused with wires colors also where i'm suppose to install capacitors? Best regards.
