Thank you! I definitely went out on a limb when I purchased them but it paid off.

what suspension are you on? I would recommend some rear spacers to push out your back wheels a bit. Love the color of your car btw

I'm getting the vehicle aligned tomorrow, will that help at all with getting the angle of rear wheels corrected?

he's not talking about the angle of your rear wheels (camber), he's talking adding spacers so the rear wheels will stick out more flush to your body

Yea they have LED's up the sides like the new Audi and Lexus. The bulbs are definitely changable, I put some Sylvania Silverstar ZXE's in place of the low beam lights. These really do look good.

It has to be Jasper blue.... although i'm not sure if the color was called the same in the states. no other factory W209 color comes closer to the one on that car.

CLK500 W209 2005
Question Halo DRL lights for CLK500

Hi there,

I have a 2005 CLK500. they have the Xenon headlights. is that the same as what you just put on your car? Is Xenon the same as Projector lights?

Sorry i am not up on all these things but i want to get the same kind of lights you have. But the listing of the lights i want to buy says the following:

03-09 Mercedes Benz W209 CLK-Class Model Without OEM HID System Only
***DOES NOT FIT MODEL WITH OEM HID SYSTEM***

So are these Xenon like i have now? is there any special thing you have to do now since these come with Halo and daylight running lights or is it a basic "plug and play"?

Thanks in advance!

The W209 bumper will NOT fit a W203, except for the C55 AMG (which basically has a W209 front end on it to accommodate the V88 engine).

yeah i was thinking about making the headlights white or blue color for the HID's and make the fogs yellow but is it a good idea and i heard that you would get flickering problems and would have to get Mercedes to reprogram it.
