2006 Facelift CLK500 Cab-
They make HID kits that use one bulb for the high/low but they are garbage, all they do is have an actuator that points the bulb up at an angle a little bit to activate the "brights". If you want true HID highs and lows the best way to do it is have two entire sets of HID's. The factory HID/halogen combo just turns on a bright halogen bulb in addition to the HID when activated. I think they work well, and you can't tell a huge difference because the light is blended together and I switched them with "super white" bulbs.
** Also, someone in a rainy/hot area needs to get these and do a trial run because a lot of times to meet low prices the housings are cheaply sealed with inadequate/poor quality silicone and are prone to leaking and fogging up.

Those that are PM'ing me or asking questions regarding the lights, please be patient, I read this wonderful site everyday. If I have the answer, I will post it as I get them.

I just got the response like 20 minutes ago, so here it is.

1. Yes this will be plug and play to factory halogen model, but not 100% sure yet on with factory xenon model.

2. If not install with xenon HID system, 100% no error for sure. As of installing it with xenon HID system, then it should not have error, but then again, must try on the actual car to find that out.

3. Yes, this is made by DEPO. (same company that made the LED tail lights)

4. This does not have any LED for corner light bulb, it uses standard bulb.

5. No, no angel eye rings.

6. Xenon bulbs/ballasts for low beam, high beam halogen and amber signal light included

7. Last but not least, the most important question, how much? Approximately $400....still working on exact dollar amount.

I will get my set sometime next week. After installation, I will post the pictures up. (May take another week, I'm getting my front bumper license plate screw holes patched/painted, then install the headlights before remounting the bumper.

Please be patient.....I hope this info helps.

Yes, they should be available on ebay in a few weeks. I don't think it will be listed on ebay until I get mine installed. I volunteered to be the guinea pig. I told the seller I will take pictures of the headlights (OEM halogens & Aftermarket xenon projector) and forward him those high quality pix to be used in his ebay ad.

Maybe he can consider setting up a group buy from this site, so he can save some ebay fee.
