+1.. You're spot on my friend.

6000k will be more white, 8000k more blue.

I bought these same ones. Fitment is perfect.
UNFORTUNATELY for me they're for left hand drive cars Anyone know how to adjust the beam for right hand drive. Someone in the W203 forum said that you can turn or switch the fitment around????

Those look like a good set of HID Xenon lights. I may have to get a set of them even though I could use a lot of other stuff first... Lets hear how they fit when you get them c32 amg.

I had asked the seller about that and he said that they would give no error message. I guess he was wrong.

I'll be getting my car back from the mechanic later today (NZ Time, its 4AM now going running). They changed the beam pattern on these lights from left to right for me. I will ask whether they had to set Xenon=present or not

Has anybody come across a light bulb for the inner lights that's not so yellow to match the outter low beams??? Look at the picture posted above and you can see what I mean. It's a smaller bulb and I haven't found one that's the ultra white color. Anybody have any luck finding these anywhere?
