Fog light and high beams. Philips Diamond Vision
Hi I got my C63 for 5 days ago. I love the colour it is in tanzantine blue.
First mod is to change all lights to white.
I have orderd LEDS from AZN but I will order Philips Diamond Vision 5000K for fog lights.
My question is has anyone changed the high beams I mean the light next to the xenon light. That one is also yellow. What do you guys think if I put a Philips diamond vision 5000K. I think its also a H7 55W.
Also you people who have changed your lights please post pictures.

NO DIY but not too hard to change the bulbs. For the eyebrows and hi-beams access is under caps that you twist to open and remove on the back side of the lighting unit in the engine bay. Just take your time and you will get it. I think the eyebrow lights pull straight out and the hi-beam bulbs may need to be twisted a quarter turn before being pulled out. Just the reverse for install. The LEDs in the eyebrows should be installed so the LEDS on the sides shine left and right to fill the space and not up and down.
To get to the fogs you need to get under the car and remove the two screws that hold the front splash guard/engine under pan on. They are the ones at the outside ends on the under cover. Then there is a push pin to pull out and remove. After these are removed the rubber splash piece will be able to be moved out of the way and you will be able to get your hand in there to replace the fog light bulbs. Might as well get the under cover right out of there for more room. You will find it much easier if you can jack up the front of the car. Remember safety first and put stands under the front jack points on the sides of the car.
