Hey Jonas - I was trying to get away this past weekend to (among other things) visit my dealer in SoCal - the problem is I live out of state. Likely I will go next week, sorry! BTW the distance is exactly the same as from Stockholm to Bjasta (I couldn't resist).

I'm rooting for you to make it work.

BTW, sent you a PM regarding the parts list to make this work; I may be following your footsteps.

i have a 2012 C class without the lighting package. I want to upgrade to the OEM bi-xenons. Im assuming same process except i won't need to mess with the shape change just the harness and STAR programing. I am just waiting to find out more from successful retrofits.

@Sohlberg, can you share your parts list for the headlamps, connectors, harness, etc?

Chicago Noob!

Noob here! Any Chicago members that are familiar with 2010 W204 headlight upgrade and housing painting? Looking for any suggestions of shops other than lightwerkx. They quoted about 500 for retro fit HID and painting the housing black. Anything in the Chi area?
