i am trying to get new HID bulb for headlight and fog light

any suggestion? what company? how much watt?

where do get them on internet? help me~~~

 

xtralights.com or something like that. that sell lots of aftermarket bulbs.

 

any brand? suggestion? I never changed the bulb yet

 

Xtralights is a good company!! By the way, I am one of the dealer in Vancouver!!!

 

will the replacement HID bulbs work with the C63 system without changing any wiring? how about with the foglights?

 

I have HID foglights from xentec (something like that) 6000K...the bulb was too long to fit (h11) so we switched it with h7 to fit, and then encountered another problem where we realized there's an adapter attached to the oem foglights. So the body shop asked for my approval to bypass the adapter so they could get the wiring to fit the foglight....so obviously yes...and after 3 hrs it finally fit.
It was a hassle with that adapter there, but in the end it fit.
Dunno if anyone had the same problem as I did but that's pretty much what happened.

 

I just went to ebay and got 6000K replacement bulbs. Just look around for a seller with good pricing and a high rating. 6000K looks great, bright with just a hint of blue.

 

Just brought a pair yesterday from

Personally I think 8000k looks great. And if the bulbs dont work you can always get the error cancelers.

 

so people who purchased the bulbs, did they fit right into the C63 socket?

 

D1C will fit perfect!!

 

Not for my fog light....some adjustments (customization) had to be made but in the end it looked great....
I'll post up pictures later when I get a chance

 

D1S

 

Can i ask why people are changing their globes??

Don't the c63 come stock with Xenon already which are white enough??
Or am i missing the point of it totally....

 

so...bottom line, Fog light won't be fit perfectly so I had to adjust. It's working fine, looks awesome~ but i didn't change the bulb for headlight. i will go fr 8000k since my fog is 8000k.
D1S will fit right? no error anyone?
those who bought the bulb, can you list name of brand?
and picture maybe? thanks i will post my fog light tomo or something

 

Factory ones is around 4500k which is still a little bit yellowish, but with the 6000k upgrade it pure white and look a lot better and brighter. My globes is coming soon and I will post some pictures.

 

Look at the link below they offer 6000k and 8000k.

I have a 2009 C63 with premium/nav package.

I am trying to do the same. If you have premium package then your low beam head light is already HID at around 4300 Calvin it is producing the most amout of light. It still has a little yellowish tint. If you want you can buy D1S bulbls that are 5000K or 6000K to get a bright white light with a little bit of blue in it. The higher the temperature the more bluer and purplish color you get but the amout of light produced goes down. So my suggestion get 5000K. These should plug straight in - no mod needed.

As for the fog lights I have ordered this slim ballast kit.

I ordered H11's at 5000K. The manual and the online sylvania car bulb cross ref suggested that I need H11's but when I took the bulbs out of the car they were H7's. So I sent the H11's back and am waiting for the H7's. The seller says I do not need the error cancel harness for the fog lights. I only fear that the auto dimming feature might cause some trouble. I also need to figure out how to take the bumper off. It will be very tough finding room to install the ballasts otherwise. Stay tuned I will take on this proj next saturday hopefully.

I always upgrade the head lights and fog lights of my cars m self. I did the same for my M3 seca blue which is now is replaced with a C63....
