Is there a bi-xenon version of this available as well? If so, how much?

kiamcoj

is it easy to install or do i need to have the dealer or a licensed mechanic do it? thanks

Bixenon requires a switch within the headlight assembly housing that changes the beam projection pattern to the hi-beam pattern, so an aftermarket kit has no way of mimicking this effect.

its toooooo easy. the only hard part for me was finding a place to mount the ballast.

Hey man,

Do you think i can do it with no experience at all with headlights? I like the filipino flag in your sig. Gotta represent.

Moze

Any idea what a dealer or bodyshop would charge to install one of these babies? (I'm not sure of the amount of labor necessary to install one)

W211 Ryda

It shouldn't be any problem if you have any experience working on car electronics. If not, have someone install it for you. Shouldn't take more than an hour to install it if you're putting the kit on your headlights. It took me a few hours for my fog lights because my car is slammed and I had a *****in time finding a place to mount the ballast.

Hell yeah...gotta represent Filipino Pride!

These are great. Darwin installed these in my Headlights and fogs and they look mean as hell. Love the thin *** ballast too.

guys, this is a 10 minute install at the most if you've done before. if not, maybe 20 mins. very straightforward. i did the light conversion including removal of the bumper and replacing the headlights and adding xenons in about 1 hr.

itsmeek

if you would like i can post a simple diy of how to plug these things in for the conversion since the companies don't send you directions with their kits.

kiamcoj

Yes if you can do that it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Meek, look forward to seeing the instructions.

ok, this is my attempt at it- note i have a new comp and have not had a chance to install photoshop or anything special so i had to use mspaint. i will improve this when i have time. i am considering that you have already removed your old bulbs and inserted the HID bulbs into your assembly. THIS IS A GENERIC PIC I FOUND OF AN HID KIT, NOT THE ONE FOR THE MERCEDES.

for the pic below i have labeled

1. hid bulb
2. bulb to ignitor connection
3. ballast to headlight connector connection
4. ballast to inside rear of headlight connectors connector (note that with our hid kits, some may or may not have a clip on the end like "4" here does, mine did not- it was just a red and a black wire that would plug into the existing output on the back of the headlight. the output i'm referring to is 2 wires that connect to the back of the OEM bulb.

NOTE THAT WE WILL NOT MOUNT THE BALLASTS/IGNITORS TO THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE TILL THE END AFTER A TEST

step 1:
take your old bulbs out by unplugging the 2 connectors from behind them and insert the xenon bulbs (labeled 1) into your headlight assembly.

step 2:
taking the two connectors that you just unplugged the headlight bulbs from step one and connect each of them to the #4 that is labeled in the picture below. (you may have them reversed initially- but don't worry, you won't break anything)

step 3:
plug your ballasts (silver boxy thing up top on the picture) to your ignitors (black box on the bottom), they should only plug in one way

step 4:
plug the connections from the HID bulbs into the ignitors (2). and do the same with what is labeled 3 in the picture.

step 5:
turn your lights on and test to see if it all works. if NOT, go back to step 2 and reverse the connections from the back of the headlight assembly from red to black to black to red and vice versa.

step 6:
after testing, mount everything in proper locations, i used 3m double sided tape to mount.

post any questions in this thread please.

Thanks Meek,

Do you have a pic of your car with the lights on? Thanks again. Ill be purchasing sometime next week once I recover from Christmas. Again thanks for taking the time to do this.

Darwin,

I ordered my kit from you last week, I see it was charged today, can you email me the tracking # at fsantos@firstlook.biz.

Thanks in advance

I'll post pics for the rest once I get them installed....can't wait

Jaki

Anybody got pics of the 6500K and the 8000K kit on their car? I'm thinking the 8000k might be a little too bright, and isn't 8000k illegal?

305-E55

I ordered two 6500k kits for the headlights and the fogs, IMO the 8000k's are to bright.......I will post up some feedback as soon as they are in, hopefully this weekend.

FCSmthree

Theoretically the 6500k will be brighter, the higher the kelvin temp the less bright and more blueish/purpleish they become.

CarLAB

The higher the Kelvin, the lower the lumens will be.

I had the HID kits installed yesterday and the headlights look good and work but the fogs are flickering and it shows up on the display as a malfunction. I called Carlab last night and left a message with someone there and I am waiting for them to call me back. Where I had them installed they reccomended installing a 75 amp relay but I would like to hear back from Carlab before I go ahead and do that, any suggestions?

itsmeek

my xenons also flicker on the passenger side for the first 10 secs i turn them on. then they are fine- i get no fault codes.

dannieboiz

I have your V2 and my passenger light is flashing when i drive down the road. It started out as flicker, then a quick flash, no constantly turn off for a few second them back on and then often times it just flashes like the effect of a car bumping their system draining the battery. Check you PM. I need you guys to look @ it.

CarLAB

Migs,

I've been trying to contact you regarding the fogs. Call me at 408 855 8245 when you have time. You might have a bad ballast/igniter.

CarLAB
