Mine don't look fuzzy and yellow and .....whatever. I have the HID equipped OEM units with the clear face (rather than cut glass) and they are pretty good. My Lexus has projectors and I hate them. The cutoff line is great, but that's about it IMO.

headlights dont look right for the car imo. I would of liked the style available for the w210 e but thoose dont seam to be in production nor does it seam they'll be anytime soon. Personally I'd just go with a brand new pair of xenons. They are clearer then one would imagine. When i find my digicam ill take some shots.

Do you have pics of your headlights with the clear face? I'd like to see what that looks like.

I could have sworn everybody hated the 'cheese grater' look but maybe a few of you have softened now that you've seen them actually mounted? Comments?

The cheese grinder looks much better in reality than you see them in photos.They made my car looks fresh and give you the new 2004 and up Benz style headlights look . There is no comparison with the 1980's style yellowish fuzzy headlights. Just my 2 cents

I hear ya. I def. have the yellowish fuzzy headlight thingy goin on. I've heard everything from getting kits to take off the haze to using brake fluid and doing the same. Then there are the replacement solutions. I just don't like that shroud. I'll wait for the ones similar to the 210 to come out. Procarparts is saying $999 on their website. I know it was $599 at one point. What happened? What justifies this? Feels like they're trying to gouge people.
