1992 Euro Light Conversion
Hi all-
I currently drive a W222 S550 but as a big fan of the W124 series, I just picked up a 1992 400E in fairly decent shape (small oil leak, needs new tires, and some panels need repaint due to clearcoat wear)with about 230k miles for under $500.
I still have not properly driven it, but rest assured I will do a nice writeup once I get to driving it around for a couple of days.
I'd like to switch headlights to the prefacelight euro lights but my question is because I have OEM wipers on the car, would this create an issue? Can I still have the wipers function after i do the retrofit?
Any help with the would be greatly appreciated.

Euro Light Conversion
Check for other posts as I used them to install mine. I went full euro set up, lights, wiper and newly painted valance with US spec yellow and Clear side markers. The post included how to wire the daytime running lights which I did. (Some day I'll install the vacuum leveling switch.)
The light conversion may cost you more than you paid for the car.
Enjoy driving
one of the best cars ever made.
