Changing out the headlight bulbs
Is this easy to do? i just bought a set of Phillips diamond vision, since my car came with the standard halos.

it's very easy, just like you would with any car, just take the cover off, then the pins, you may want to use a pliers so that the bulbs won't touch anything.
nice choice, but pricey, I was quoted AU$105 for a set!!

WTF? AUD105 for a pair of Philips bulbs. Dang, Tezta was hesitating on paying AUD71 for his, LOL! (prob even cheaper now given the pace the bloody AUD forex is climbing at!!) I am so glad I'm not doing up my ride back in OZ. No wonder everyone stays with their Holdens down under.

Having said that, my favourite was the Falcon GT's from those days.... - would also loved to keep Mad Max's ride in my garage Can't be too many gems from the 70's left now......
Sorry for the off topic Tez - can't help it when I meet another member from Oz.

Forget about the Diamond vision, get yourself a set of bi-xenons & 6000K d2s.

Can you fit aftermarket Xenon on the W209? I was advised of some electrical problem, any suggestions of which model to get and price?
Thanks.
