Arrow Do Not Buy From Mbhistorian! Known Scam Artist!

I have a pair of new W203 C-Class Coupe Bi-Xenon Headlight Assemblies. These are for 02-05 C230, C320 Sports Coupes Only. They will not fit the Sedan. I never got a chance to install these before I sold my car. Now they can be yours. I paid $1600 for last year. I am asking $1200 OBO.

Please send an email to mbhistorian@yahoo.com

Offer Wont Last Get Them While You Can This Is A Rare Exclusive Sought After Item.




THIS IS A KNOWN SCAM ARTIST, DO NOT BUY FROM HIM! THIS IS A SCAM! IF YOU HAVE ALREADY CONTACTED HIM, PLEASE RETRACT YOUR PURCHASE AND GET YOUR MONEY BACK!

Im giving everyone a heads up. I know coupe guys want this mod so bad. I have a pair of new W203 C-Class Coupe Bi-Xenon Headlight Assemblies. These are for 02-05 C230, C320 Sports Coupes Only. They will not fit the Sedan. I never got a chance to install these before I sold my car. Now they can be yours. I paid $1600 for last year. I am asking $1200 OBO.

Please send an email to THIS IS A SCAM ARTIST!

No. These things are rare, and they cost $1600 new. Im selling for $1200 OBO, be reasonable with offers. A used set just sold for $950 weeks ago on here.

Again like I said a used set sold for $950 a pair. Mines are new and OEM Authentic MB Bi-Xenons. It doesnt get any better than this. This is a rare mod for coupe owners. It will give your car a updated look, and will look overall better.

Thank You.

No Im not taking $400. A used set sold on here weeks ago for $950. Reasonable Offers Only.

1) Those are not OEM. 2) Those are not for a coupe.

the 400 dollar ebays...
those arent even bi-xenons.
its a xenon low beam bulb.
h7 high beam (NOT HID)

a bi-xenon headlamp uses one xenon bulb with a shutter constantly covering it to portray a low-beam effect.

$400 is too good to be true when speaking of "bi-xenons"

It would be much easier to swap them when the bumper is off the car. There are some DIY instructions that you can read in the forum.

But some people manage to swap headlights without removing their bumpers.
