it was about 90 dollars, lifetime warranty, from ddm tuning, local picked up, plug and play after you drill the back of the housing, this is my 2nd kit. 1st kit was ebay, paid more, no warranty, got about 2 years out of it.

You shouldnt get any warning codes due to the fact that it runs at the same wattage as a halogen bulb. Thats what the 55W HID kits were really meant for.

So the W202 wouldnt have a problem, i know my W203 C32 has the problem with 35W lights. Usually youll need the dealer to change the computer to HID but the 55W kit solves the problem and comes with a brighter light output
