Aftermarket Headlight Search
So I have a C300 (W204) with factory HID I’ve been looking around and seen some nice aftermarket headlights but all I see is that they don’t fit factory HID models; is there any that do? Or will they fit regardless? Or possibly some kind of modification I can do? I’ll see the same kits that say they don’t for HID being sold with HID aftermarket kits? Please if you have any information I would appreciate it!

Wait, so you already have OEM xenons, but looking for new housing? Why not just upgrade the D1S bulb to something higher end?

I attached a photo below of an example; looking for something similar not just the bulbs but the entire housing but all I can find they say it won’t fit factory xenon.

Spyder I think has a version for xenons... But yeah, you're going to have a hard time as your current xenon package is better than those aftermarket solutions.

I don't think anyone with them can swap.

Just put in led eyelids and whiter/blueish Hids in and call it a day
