Headlight bulb replacement
I'm having trouble putting back my halogen light bulb after replacing it. I've watched a few videos but none for 2013. It mentions a "clip" in the housing but my car doesn't have it. Do I need to twist it to get it stay?

I haven't seen the 2013 but my stock halogens on my CLK have a "wave" ,almost looks like a fish hook, shaped metal bracket which tightens the bulb not the housing! This part is really easy to use so make sure you didn't!
Check your other headlight and compare!

For the FL models, 1) twist the caps off 2) Again, twist the plastic piece within, 3) and simply pull the bulb out of the plastic piece holding it in place. Its that simple, but requires a lot of force. Don't over do it since you can easily damage the bulb/plastic/wiring by doing so.
