E55 Lights Installed
Yesterday, I installed a new set of German-made, genuine M-B E55 tail lights on my 2000 E430 Sport. Took me 1.5 hours, fairly easy. Great fit, looks great especially on silver car.
8mm socket and small ratchet wrench, medium extension, large screwdriver to pop off trim keepers, lots of patience required. I waxed the light openings after old lights were removed.

Hey Mikey, your car is one of my favorites. Where did you purchase the E55 tails? How much?
Do you have Xenon upfront also? Great looking car!

Thanks Kev. Howz that E55 of yours? You ready for a new one? Had a dude mess with me the other day in a new one. He's a brave fellow isn't he? 469 hp vs my 275. It was a beautiful car. He paid $90K for it.
I bought the E55 tail lights from the guy (Huy) here on the Forum. He allowed some good $$ on my factory lights on trade.
No Xenons. I do have aftermarket bulbs in the low and high beams that are much brighter and whiter than stock.
