help on mercedes 1992 190e

Okay, so I have to admit, I don't know much about cars at all but I'm now trying to get my hands dirty.

I have a Mercedes 190e 2.6 L. I have two main questions. You know how the headlights are dim? Would I need to change the whole headlight or just get brighter bulbs?

Also, the car is so low that when I go over speed bumps or pot holes or dips in the roads too quickly, it bangs the bottom. Is that normal? Or should I get the shocks replaced?

What do you guys suggest?

I had the same issue with my 260E so you will need new shocks.

The US Headlights suck...period...so buy some Euro ones (Bosch is best, but I recommend and have DEPO in both my 124's). No bulb will look good in the US lights.
