Like many, I was astounded to find that C63s did not come standard with Xenon headlights. To make things worse, at the time I picked up my C63 it was hard to even find cars that had the Xenon "option". So I bit the bullet and picked up a car with Halogen lights. After suffering for a while with a car that had desk lamps for headlights, I found Umnitza in Northern California. In a day they were able to retrofit my car with Xenon projectors. The light output at night is great and the fixtures look great. They don't look like the factory Xenons, but they still look great. Pics below (clear side markers are coming...)

Thanks for the write up.
Here's what the car's headlight looked like before we worked on it:

Can you post light output pictures at night?

And why not make it be bi-xenon for the high beams? It still looks weird on the inner side

abcut973

Oh so you modified the OEM headlights ?

Ricky-Bobby

In person the inner lights look okay. And they replaced the bulbs so they're blue and blend with the Xenons at night. My biggest issue was with the disastrous halogens which these mods took care of.

Ricky-Bobby

Yep. At the time I couldn't find an aftermarket light set and mbz wanted waaay too much to install factory xenons.

Ricky-Bobby

Yeah. I'll take some in the next couple of days.

Guilty

Yes I figured they would replace the bulbs, but still. I think it looks way better now.

I'm just curious, it's not possible to fix the inner lights and add xenons projectors?

Ricky-Bobby

That's a good question. I would think so, but didn't ask Umnitza about it. I may look into it at some point down the road.

This picture came out a bit grainy but it gives a pretty good idea of the light output. These are the low beams...50,000 times better than the stock halogens.
