clk500 headlights

Are 2005 clk500 xenon headlights the same as 2007-2009? Are the plug in connections the same. ive noticed some lights with different plug in locations from offers on ebay.

Own 2005 CLK500, but drive 2011 Sienna :)
There are two different types of xenon headlights- the older ones are “regular xenon “ lights, the newer ones are with active curve. My newer headlights were broken so I did install older type without active curve into my 08MY.

But are the plug ins in the same location on the back housing with the newer curved xenon as opposed to the old version. Also, is the clk550, Clk500 and clk 350 interchangeable in each model? Last, does it make a difference if it's a 07-09 amg Headlight as opposed to a 05-06 non amg?

the bulbs quit working totally not long after going on and off-
procedure depends on model, year and bulb type

I went to replace my 2006 halos and the EBay models did not fit. My mechanic got some Hellas that fit at a good price, and that was that.
