Thats a goode deal considering we almost paid twice that just to be the first with projectors (even though they were cheesy). Mine are still brand new looking so I am going to have to hold off a while. I got bigger car problems again (hesitation AGAIN)..that I gotta deal with.

I thought I was sharing some NEW news but once again I am the last one to know LOL

They will work on that car, but you will end up with straight halogen. Unless you ugrade to HID for another 200 bucks for the kit.

doubt u need to buy a whole new HID kit...u could most likely use ur OEM HID ballasts and wiring and all and just buy sum HID bulbs that would fit ...so sum H7 HID bulbs...

Hmmm I never thought about that....Thanks for correcting me. So the ballasts for the factory Xenon OEM setup will work correctly with HID bulbs? I understand what you mean about getting the H7 socket style HID bulbs but will the voltage and stuff work correctly with it?

i honestly dont know...but i really hope so lol...i know you can use a different temperature of the same size bulbs with the ballasts...ive bought some bulbs on ebay that i hooked up to my factory ballasts...simple bulb swap...im think and hopin its the same...

anyone else care to chime in?

Here are the pics as posted by Hersh on the other forum.

Damm they all look really nice. The black ones look nice to. I really like the chrome ones...they are going to look sick on my car...the blacks will look sick on all cars except black because the front of the car will get washed out but on silver and white these black ones are going to look sick. Wow..why weren't these made a long time ago? What a waist of time and emotions for all of us W208ers.

They even look better than what was out there for the W210. ***...anyone who gets these...black or chrome will be happy now. And who cares about the HALO ****e...I'm gonna rock the HALO effect!

I just got my tracking number and they are in the USA already. I should have them by Monday or Tuesday the latest.
