yeah if ur car is still covered go there.... !
what bulbs are you useing ???
if you are useing more then 35watt bulb it will fyk up ur wires
hid kits are 35 watt most kits some ppl are dumb and go with 55 watt kid wich is more brighter but it will **** up ur wires if you go with a brighter watt

I have a 55 watt bulb and thats what Mercedes said I can use??
It's a low beam light
h7 sylvania
The high beams work
But the wires look freyed and the bulb "that doesnt work" looks fine and I wanted to know how I would go about fixing the wires
Can I just get the wires and do it on my own or have a local mechanic do it?

a hid kit is
WATTAGE OUTPUT: 35 WATTS
your useing more watts then stock and real hid kit
i think they give you the wrong info

if you go over 35watts you will have a problem
back in the days 1995 i had j30 and thats when whyper white head lights started becomeing big i got a set that **** blew up my wires like no tommrow

Wow
I did not know that cuz I was looking in the manual and it said 55watt low/high beam and I knew something was up
And just to clarify the high beams are 55watt h7?
The low beams are 35 watt h7?
Rite? Like the ones in one Headlamp together
And I have no clue what the Xenons are
So my question is how the $#%* do I fix my wires?
What do I buy and is a DIY Job?
Thanks for the response man

xenons are knowed as hid head lights
they also make fake hid's wich is more watt head lights hyper white wich will **** up ur wires
now as far as a real hid goes it will look nice on your car and u will see better
h7 hid kit goes for 140$
http://cartoka.com/
i say you go with a hid ! its the best thing you can do
the hid comes in colors
4300k is facotry hid cars
6000k is white blue color
8000k is sky blue
and with a hid kit you wont need any high beam's its so bright !
pick any one of them any thing other then is no good
oh yeah have your wires fixed then get this hid kit iam sure u will not have a problem at all
and how u fix you wires is.... take it to some 1 local shop that you trust with ur car
cause if you take it to m-benz its gonna be a arm and leg $ money wise
if you live in newyork if you buy the hid kit i can help you install it
here is a pix
stock head lights vs hid kit you tell me whats better

the pix that you showed me is ur high beam not your low beam how ever
if your wires is ****ed up
get them fixed but do not get the same bulb
i dont know what type of bulb m-benz use non hid but
my car did not have hid and i put a hi-tek hid kit in it and i never had a problem with it yet no wires nothing at all
but yah mean get the wires fixed..... do not put that bulb back in go with lower watt
