Audi A4, CLK 320 Cab
New Lights

Hi All,
I'm new in here First, i wanne greet all of you. I read the board since a half year, but just decided yet to write some posts. Hopefully, my english isn't so bad, that u cant understand me.

I'm nineteen years old, my cars are a audi a4, and my sweet honey the clk 320 cab. pics will be made soon, when i got some new nice rims.

So, just to my first question: Kia build a new car called Amanti http://www.kia.com/041703.shtml which got clearly headlights. the car is designed as the old e-class, so... will the kia lights fit in our old clk's?

bye,
Michael

welcome to the board...

that kia is a very interesting car... shares some similarities with the benz... looks like the headlights, and HVAC controls are the same... however, i highly doubt that the headlights will be able to transfer to the w208 CLK... although it would look like an improvement

taking a second look at the car's lights, although very very similar in layout... i think the lights are much further apart from each other compared to the CLK... plus, the kia's lights are slanted... take a look and decide for yourself

The headlights are those from the new E-Class, just look at the assembly and inside, same thing. Plus e-class headlights never did fit that of a clk. I asked, and someone said the sizes are different.
