2005 C55 AMG headlamps

Hey I’m new here with an 2005 Mercedes C55 AMG. I’m after some headlamp replacements. I’m curious if there are other models of Mercedes that will work with my car. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks for any info.

CLK55 headlights are the same. Why are you wanting to replace them in the first place? Broken or frosted over?

Just bought the car an they are frosted an some of the silver around the bulb area is flaking. Not very bad but I want to freshen up the front.

Bummer on the silver flake. I know some guys have heated these up and popped the lenses off and then reglued with success. A couple hours with a 3M kit can polish them up like new, but that flaking is no bueno.

Check CLK63s as well. They may be the same too.
