Im liking these! Can anyone confirm whether is the proper projector for HID bulbs? Well, upon reading it appears that they use H1/H1... I donno what that means outside its just a bulb

Why? cause you just bought some? In that case it's all about Bosch e-code 300E headlights with condensation in the passenger side light. LOL You need E500 headlights for your E420 btw...
I like the second set, black housing....since I need one new, might as well switch it up...I want to make the enzo look like something Darth Vader would drive...

wow, who comes up with all of this Shhhhht. I am all about modding if it is done right, but how many cars need "altezza" tail lights or halo headlights like the new BMW's? It seems like there is so much poorly designed junk on ebay these days. I had seen these same headlights for the 3series Bimmers a few weekends ago, and most cars don't have perfect body alignment, so having one-piece headlights are no good, especially if one part gets a chip, you have to replace the whole damn thing.
Just simple design analysis makes me wonder who the hell designs this stuff. Headlights are an integral part of a vehicles apperance, and none of the design aspects of these lights work well with anything on the w124. ie the rounded shapes when the w124 is very "slab-ular" Projectors? Cool, but why have an H1 and a mini projector, just have one bulb work well as opposed to having two try to do one thing right.
If they want to make cool dual projector lights, they need to just take ones like Shaddow G's and put projectors in there isntead of reflector type. Keep er simple and clean, like a mercedes should be.
This is getting awful RICEY!!!!
Do they throw in a colored acura logo or Hello Kitty sticker to put over the mercedes star on the trunk?

That is one UGLY headlight. They are trying to make our car look like the new circle lights. Id rather buy the $500 projectors instead of those lights.

These projectors use a H1 halogen bulb, they will not work correctly with a HID burner, although these headlights would be easy to modify and install a proper set of HID projectors.
thats good to know. Easy to modify for 2phast, or normal people easy to modify :p

Well, let me say that I ASSUME it will be easy, as they already have a good sized projector in them, it may still require heating them up and pulling the lense off, I don't know for sure. But definately these will be easier to modify then a set without a projector already in them.
When they come down in price, I plan on picking up a set and doing another projector retro.
