Hey guys could someone tell me what temp to get to best match the foglights to my xenons? Also, where should i get them at?

6000K halogens will match fairly well, even though your OEM bixenon bulbs are like 4200K. I put in 8000K halogens to match my 6000K Philips Ultinon xenon bulbs. The 8000K bulbs are obviously a little more blue, but I didn't think that 6000Ks would be blue enough. BTW, the foglights don't really help you see any better when you have 6000K/8000K halogens in there

How hard is it to replace the foglights on the C55? Anyone seen a good DIY writeup?
Replacing the foglights on my ML320 was close to impossible w/o having to raise the SUV.

It was a 20 minute job on the C32. You turn the wheel all the way to the side, then remove a few plastic clips and pull the plastic wheel well away. Reach in there and twist, and swap the bulbs.

Don't forget to mention the fact that the headlight washer is in the way on the driver's side. If you want to get to that one you have to undo the plasic clips just like the passenger side but you also have to undo the ones under the bumper on the edge so you can reach up from the bottom.
