Xenon Headlight Question
Well my Xenon Headlight Burned Out today on my 1998 CLK320 (70K miles). From the parts list I see the bulb costs $185.00. Bull****, I will not pay that..... Any suggestions? What is the size/style so I can know what to shop for?? Also any place to get them cheaper?? Thanks

That guy has about 4 or 5 of everything you can possibly add-on/modify/replace/retrofit onto the CLK.

Hey MMGRAD~
I emailed you, just talked to MB they want $120 for the bulb, you have anything cheaper????
Also, could it be anything else causing the bulb to fail??
Thanks

do you drive with ur lights on all day?
well, the xenon system only consist of 2 parts: a ballast & a bulb
you would want the bulb to go out before the ballast as the ballast cost much more to replace...
if you are unsure, swap bulbs to see if its a ballast problem or is it just really the bulb that went out...
I'll email you with prices for the bulbs
