Hey to those who got the headlight conversion done, how long did the labour component take?

i was looking to get this done but was told it can take anywhere from 20-30 hours and that just seemed ridiculous.

shop says if i buy the lights from them then they wont charge labour and itll just be a fixed cost but if i buy my own facelift headlights at half the cost due to a contact, then they give me the story that they will charge by hour and have no idea how long it might take.

just curious to hear others experience if it really takes THAT long coz it looks like shop is giving me the run around so i buy the part from them coz i cant help but think that if it really took them that many labour hours, then wouldnt they also charge the same even if i bought lights from them coz realistically who is going to waive off so many labour hours regardless of where part is bought from…

I wouldn’t bother, it’s not worth it and it’s stupidly costly inc parts / labour not to mention a lot of coding / rewiring required to make them work properly.

it’s definitely labour intensive.

MB House Offers this for $6.3k USD (labor, coding and parts included): https://www.mbhouse.ca/store/gt-headlights.html

Looks great. But probably not worth paying that much for headlight upgrades. I am doing NTG 5.5, steering wheel and trying to figure out a solution for front camera though.

If you do a search on this forum you will see that sequential taillights upgrade has been done successfully. I have done it on my GT.

You need the European fog light and a light switch from a C class that has only one fog light switch. The fog/reverse light part number is 218 906 21 00. Get under the car, remove the rear bottom panel, drill out 4 rivets. After you cut your knuckles on the sharp sheet metal remove the old reverse light and install the fog one. Use screws and nuts instead of the rivets you removed. Put everything back. Unless you will drive behind your car in fog you will never get to see it .
