C55 AMG W203 HEADLIGHTS ..HELP

Hi there

I have a Merc w203 2005 model C55 AMG
Im looking for a set of headlights, i have the control panel and vacuum pump.

I order w203 headlight ,but the bumper doesn’t fit , so looks like it has to be AMG.

Any one know where i can buy from ,Agents are very exspensive.

a car that can't do the throttle reset.
203 c32 and c55 are two different lights. '203' lights aren't enough of a description to get you what you want. good luck.

you need to look for W209 headlights actually. The C55 shares the bonnet of a CLK car and therefore uses its headlights. You can find them on Ebay for around 400 for the pair.

fogs are different than most 209. I believe the CLK63 had the same fogs as the C55.

Thanks Juan1, thtguy,

I'm going to wait for the foglight, but decided to try sanding the surface (whatever that's causing the white thing) with very fine sandpaper. I used the light restorer after and seems good (tried one area). I do like the OEM look so will try until I breakdown to get an Xenon upgrade.

Foglight... Well, I'll continue to search for C55 light. Since I really don't need, it's a cosmetics than anything else. One of my to-do-list item for near future.

Thanks again!
