Take my advice and change those other bulbs, then tell me/us what you used and post pics. Changing the bulbs after the fact is like building a ship in a bottle that's installed in your engine bay, lol, so I only want to do it once! I'm curious what LED's might look like when off, for example.

I may also change out the turn signal for a chrome bulb that lights amber:

...and definitely change the high beams:

I never understood why would someone install some Made in China aftermarket headlights on a Mercedes...
Doesn't make sense.

Do you think everything people put on their benz, bmw, Audi are made in Germany?
You should ask everyone with carbon fiber parts, body kits aftermarket wheels, hid kits, sound systems.... why they use those parts.
Seriously, Depo headlights are used by many people across all different communities of cars.
And btw, I bet that mercedes key chain is made in china.

You should just get a Honda Civic with cut down springs.

People with undeveloped brains use parts other than Made in Germany. Sure not everything is made in Germany. France, Spain and other Euro countries make certain parts. Car has value and represents value when it is stock.

and you are the immature one. go figure you are a BMW fan, this makes total sense.

First of all I didn't use a single bad word in any of my messages. Lost the count with yours, but anyway that shows how immature you are, and can't professionally express your opinion. With that being said, Have a Happy Memorial day.
P. S. Learn to read. My S430 is 05. Not 03. Perhaps you may need glasses.

I installed the phillips bulbs on my high beams and they still look as yellow as any other halogen I've used.... any other suggestions?
