Do I need to modify?

Ok

I have a 02 C32 with factory halogens and Depo clear Housings with Carlab HID kit. I need to either get a new set of Depo clear housings because the adjustment screws are broken and light facing way too high which will be plug and play but am considering a pair of OEM bixenon instead. My question is will I have to get a new harness also since my OEM harness was originally for H7? Currently I am using an adaptor with the HID kit to be able to use my H7 harness. I also own a 04 C230k and the harness I think is different(car is not avalable for me to look) anyone did the OEM bixenon convertion coming from a OEM H7 harness?

Yeah they'll plug right in. The bulb connector is not the same thing. I had H7s and switched to BiX and I didn't need any wiring. I'm sure you know that you need XENON=PRESENT, but you probably already have that.

Ok so you did convertion.............i know the light connector are different so do I have to get some adapter to fit it using my H7 connector? I would still need computer set to xenon present but thats the least of my worries. I am waiting on forum member about the bixenon OEM headlights.

The bulb connector is part of the headlight, so you won't have that h7 connector any more. The harness plugs into the entire headlight, then the bulb plugs into the headlight. See what I mean?
