Hello all,


My name is Tara...just bought a 2010 C300...and I love it! I've only taken a few pics of it, but would prefer to take more pics once I tint the windows and replace the stock headlights with HID's.
Anyway, if anyone has any recommendations for HID kits, or can tell me where I can take my ride to get the work done by a pro, please let me know. I live in San Diego.
Thank you for any suggestions. Ciao

 

Ciao yourself
welcome to the forums

 

Welcome to the forum!!! The retrofit source! They have some of the best HID kits around!! Good luck!

 

Congrats and Welcome ! ^^^ Morimoto HID kit I will be doing this upgrade soon.

 

Welcome to the forum. I used DDM kit. They are local in Kearny Mesa, San Diego. Let me know if you have any question.

 

Hello again, and thank you for all of the suggestions. Are these kits "plug and play" or should I just pay someone to order and install them? I've installed LED's on my motorcycle so I am familiar with electrical components and wiring harnesses however, I know this can also be a pain in the butt. I just want to know if this process will be labor intensive or if I can do this alone. Thanks again guys! Have an awesome week!

 

It's pretty simple DIY, you should be able to do it yourself. Also, check-out Mike's website: http://www.aznoptics.com/ He also carries HID kit, he's a member and sponsor here in MBWorld. If you still

 

Sweet! Thanks C300S! I will check it out now. -Tara

 

Installing HIDs and LEDs are not really too difficult, especially since you've already done some level of installation on your bike so understand the general concept. Only difficulty really is usually the tight space involved and popping clip panels. Not really difficult and definitely a DIY.

I agree that Morimoto kits are the best bang for your buck. We are an authorized dealer in Morimoto kits.

 

If what AZN Optics has is what you want, no need to look further. Michael offers outstanding service, before and after the sale. I have his full set of LED replacements for my tail lamps.

 

We would like picture of you and your car please!

 

^ lol

 

Agreed!!! Michael @ AZN Optics is the place to buy your HIDs! I bought 5000k morimotos and they are great! Great customer service too

 

Welcome

 

Hello all,

So I called every dealership in north county to see if any of them would be willing to install the HID's, but that's a negative. I'm not really sure why although I can speculate that it is due to protecting their butts from insurance claims produced by cheap HID kits or faulty wiring. I dunno but looks like I'm on my own with installation.
I would like to tint my windows next week. Does anyone have any suggestions for companies that tint?
I would certainly appreciate the suggestions. Thanks again for the warm welcome. In reference to questions about the pics of my car, I will not take any pics until the aftermarket work is finite.
Take care guys!

 

What is the length of warranty on your kits? Are these kits complete or will I have to purchase wiring harnesses, clips, cancellors, etc.?

 

Thank you.

 

Thanks for the info.

 

the ONLY mod the dealer has touched for me thus far has been putting on an aftermarket grill........but I rely heavily upon the indy shop I use, good idea to find one in your area and make good freinds

 

It's a full kit including everything you need. There's a 5 year warranty.

 

As for tint shop, hit up San Diego Tint in La Mesa. Ask for Andrew.

 

Thank you very much!
