finally getting OEM Bi-xenon's! Question
Hey Guys,

So I finally found some OEM Bi-xenon's from a C55 that I'm gonna pick up. My question is, do I need his ballasts too? Or just the lights and bulbs?

Thanks in Advance!

Absolutely you need the ballasts. You know C55 headlights won't fit in a C32 right?

Oh crap.....thanks for letting me know!
I totally forgot about that!

Wait, he's telling me they fit and that he had put them on his C240. Can I get some verification on this?

Yeah, everything I read says they won't fit. I always knew it had a W209 front end, guess I was just hoping and praying they would fit.

If he had them on a C240 then they didn't come from a C55.
