Hi guys just bought a brand new 2013 c63 Amg coupe and surprisingly it didn't come with xenons .....please need help ! Really need them

Hmmm in Canada it wasnt possible to get a C63 without. 2 options imo. Purchase the xenon housing or upgrade to HIDs. If your car didnt come with them you havent technically paid for them so why not just buy them from the dealer?

in the US they are unfortunately part of the lighting package.. which isn't standard. kind of absurd for a car of this price point considering my girlfriend's GTi comes with them standard

brooklync63

That is unreal considering Infiniti G25s come standard with them! Xenons are a must-have option!

I agree, bi-xenons should've been a standard option. The OEM option sounds complicated, and coding through the ECU is not yet supported. I ended up having a shop retrofit mine with some aftermarket projectors.

I am not sure what, if any, could be used.. But I have 2 headlights from a 09 C63 with Xenons, the guts might be useful to you if you are converting?

The backs have broken tabs, but everything else is fine.

Dealers can't retrofit xenon due to SCN coding limitations. Maybe MBenzNL can help.

My '99 Acura came with them and I've never seen a TL without xenons.

my 99 TL as well. but to be fair, that 99 TL was light years ahead of its time for stuff that was standard. fantastic car and an absolute bargain the year it was launched

^^ agreed, our family 99 TL has xenon & it was impressive to see it standard option 14 years ago.

It is not acceptable for a C63 at this price range to have projectors lights. MB failed on this big time.

you can convert your bulbs to xenon by buying a kit from any number of dealers, try ebay, what ever bulb type you have ; buy a xenon bulb type to match and you get the ballast to power them. just wire in to your 12v
you can get any color bulb.

I feel your pain. I was shocked to find out that Xenons weren't standard with the C63. Heck, most VW's come standard with Xenons. That said, I found a great solution...through Umnitza in Northern California I was able to get my halogen lights retrofitted with Xenon projectors. The light output is great at night, and the fixtures look good. They don't look like the factory Xenons but they look good.

That is not too bad. How much did you pay for them?
Are they adaptive like the OEM?

umnitza

Halogen headlights don't have the adaptive feature built into them, so it wouldn't work if we gave him an adaptive bixenon projector anyways.

it was about $930 with all the features requested like black out, angel eyes, installation, etc.

- sidebar . . . I didn't know there were so many similar two car collections. Mine is an '05. Those headlights have been fantastic since day 1.

solekeeper

you're telling me you bought a brand new c63, then you realized you didn't have xenon? come on dude..

avery.whss

yeah its very obvious if they are or aren't xenons lol...anyways 1 headlight alone costs close to 3grand in canada (quote from the body shop when i crashed my car)...im sure you can buy them online maybe?

Infamouz

Parts.com has the headlights listed at 888 a piece.
