CLS 55 Bi-xenon projectors
Hello Mbworld,
I am sure I cannot be the only long term owner of the wonderful C219 that is facing this. My current Xenons are just not as bright as the first day. In trying to get that experience back I went for some "compatible" headlights only to find they were xenon though not projectors. I do not have that half second charge up time, nor do I get the full xenon white wash high beams.
I have been looking at eBay and other parts places online, but they all sell the HID or xenon non projector head units. Anyone have any luck finding the originals?
Cheers

Nope, I was also struggling with the light output but decided to buy new headlights alltogether instead of repairing the old ones. See my build thread in the AMG section > https://mbworld.org/forums/c219/8443...ml#post8889206
The Morimoto lenses are a popular choice if I am not mistaken
