hi all, I did a search but just wanted to confirm before I damage anything. I can barely see what I'm doing, let enough get my hand in there. After i twist off the power harness - it sounds like there's a metal clip holding the bulb in place. So does that clip:

a. slide off to the side
b. does the bulb then pull right off?

thanks.

uh..nevermind. figured it out. damn 6000k is much better.

hey question. So the high beams i'm replacing with sylvania ultras so I get the white bulb look dont want high beam HIDs and also i have factory xenons with factory ballast can i just switch the factory hid bulb with a 6000k bulb? or i have to swap the entire unit? also if i just swap the bulb anyone know a good place to just get the hid xenon bulb?

dynomite05

You just swap the bulb. I bought mine from HIDextra just like Lowpost.

Wes,

Can you confirm this i have the D2S too ? or ? its an 05 500.

dynomite05

Honestly, I'm not even sure anymore. I think facelift is D1S and pre-facelift is D2S. Take a look at the base of your bulb. If the base is square you have D1S, if it's round it's D2S. I have a set of D2S 6000k lying around if you need them.

I'll check and let u know...just have to wait til the snow melting...i couldnt open my garage doors lolz.

Yeah sometimes the Sylvania chart is wrong, It says that my Xenon bulbs are DS2 but they really are DS1 and mines a 06 350

lowpost

+1 on what dyno said. I think 03-04 is D2s, 05+ is D1s

Hah hah - thanks fellas. I was moving slow. What they did was they attached a camera on a rig which attaches to the car with 2 suction devices. We then drove the car slow - no more than 5 mph while thd camera shutter is ke

While the shutter is kept open (I think).

dynomite05

Ahhh I see. Thanks for the info.

wait so if i want to change my high beam bulb in the 2005 clk i have to use ds2 bulbs? sylvania bulb guide says use H7 because i want replace the yellow high beam with sylvania ultras for the white look without HIDs and ballasts.

dynomite05

D2S is only for low beam

M-bENZ

No. Your highbeam is H7.

Hi guys,

I'm thinking of getting these bulbs from HIDextra and I see few of you did that already.

So, what do you think about them?
How long did you have them?
Any issues with the projectors or the ballasts?
Basically are they safe to use in our cars or they will damage something else way more expensive?

I don't want to save a little on the bulb price to end up paying so much more to replace the ballasts or anything else ...

Please let me know, thanks!!

i agree 8000K is a little too blue (what I have ) and very dim especially if you smoke out the lens housing
