hey guys ...

I noticed my factory HID bulbs for clk 550 are a little "yellow"

how do I change these to get the more hyper white - blue tinge tuner look?

any way to change out the fogs down below too (also a little yellow"

THANKS!

What color are your fogs? In your avatar pic they look like 6K or more.

I bought my 6000k bulbs from hidextra.

Klinh

Mine foglights is 8000k. I also changed out mine headlights to 8000k now to match to foglights.

kevblah

I'm running 6000k bulbs in my stock bi-xenon headlights and a HIDExtra 6000k HID kit in my fogs. I think 8000k is too blue and ricey, just my opinion though.

Klinh

It actually just a slight of blue after about 5 mins start up. Mine foglight pic were taken right after start up.

i thought all 550s came with xenons in the headlamp

dynomite05

We're talking about replacing the bulb in the headlight, not the whole light.

Klinh

Not even the $90K Clk63 Cabriolet came with xenons headlight standard.

i didn't know we can change our stock HID bulbs....????

i know if u have stock halogen H7s we can get a hid kit

we can change the bulb on our stock HID set up?!

where are u guys mounting the ballasts for the HID fogs??

how can I make my foglights always light up with the low beams? i have to pull the knob for the foglights to light up...any way to make the fogs always lightup with the low beams??

Clkboi

That is just ridiculous WTF Mercedes???

Must feel pretty special to have Xenons on a CLK lol

fusion2007

lol thats crazy. it comes standared in the s500s which started at 86k,lol when it was new

Clkboi

it should be standard in any Mercedes wtf

Klinh

It look SO CHEAP on the Clk63!!!!!!! Yeah, xenon headlight housing really make the car look so much better and cool color at night.

Klinh

I believe also standard on the w211 E-class too at $48K but not on the
$90K Clk63 Cabriolet.

Clkboi

Ahh i cant wait to get my hands on a pair. P

kevblah

Nah, the W211's didn't come standard with xenons.

Clkboi

They still had a projector housing though

sleepyheadzzz

hey nobody answered my QUESTIONS!!!!

i can just change the bulb on my stock d2s to 8000K and it'll work??? how do uguys keep the fogs on all the time??

Klinh

Yes, I'm currently running DS2 8000k headlights and NO on the foglights.

sleepyheadzzz

do i need to buy the connector cable? or just bulb is enough??

Thanks

Klinh

Just the bulbs for the headlight. For foglights, would required the complete kit included the codes canceler. Sorry......mine headlights bulbs is DS1 not DS2. Your should be DS1 too. DS2 is the older HID headlight.

thanks klinh...but now i'm confused

everybody here is gettin D1s...however sylvania says D2s

i have a 2008 clk 550 which one is it??? thanksss

Klinh

That's weird !! Sylvania said that my foglight is H11 but mine is H7 but other has the H11. You should have the new headlight with adaptive feature like the headlight turn when you turn. The only sure way is to remove the back cover and see if the bulbs look like in the pictures on my link. The Ds1 has the blaster built onto the bulb. Here's the link to see what Ds1 bulbs look like.
