New Headlights and Taillights

Hey Guys. I have a 2000 E-320 4-matic and i wanted to upgrade the Headlights and Taillights. Right now it has stock headlights and taillights (i think the headlights are halogen, not sure) I was wondering if there were any kind of headlights you suggest. i think i might get projector. i want something nice and bright and that can really shine a lot of light when driving. Just wanna know what you guys have in yours and whats the best. Thanks for the help!!!

if you really appreciate quality lighting, then there isn't any substitute for HID lighting, I opine.

problem is that only reflector HIDs were made by the factory. if you desire projector based
HIDs, you'll either need to accept the low quality aftermarket ones, or invest in a little elbow
grease and retrofit them.

the tails are quirky. most aftermarket LED lights trip the 'lamp malfunction' alert and it
can be troublesome to fix.

hmmmm okay :/ Im also looking for headlights that would give like the "angle eye" illusion. i found out about bi-xenon but wasnt sure if they were good quality. and im also aware that angle eyes arent made for mercedes
