Damn! I love it! You should pick up some stealth bulbs for your turn signals! I think It would clean up that part of the light!

I know I'm resurrecting this thread, but does the xenon auto-leveling feature still work with this mod? Also, does the headlight turn with the turn of the wheels while driving? I had a feeling these face lifted headlamps from the CLK were the ones with curve illumination.
