Extra LED light for high beam

I have bought a LED panel for extra light when using high beam since the original high beam are not up to today’s standard - I am planning to put on my W210 E320 from 1999 ….. knowing the W210 electric system I will hear if anyone has any experience with this ?

Will it trigger a fault on the light system?

i'm considering similar, but for motorcycle and truck. I'd definitely wire it
separately with its own switch, fuse and relay. The specification shows
approximately 10 amps but I know that the lighting harness on the 210
is not too robust, appears to have an accelerated decomposition life, and
connections to the parking light (H6W) bulb and the fog light (h1) tends to
melt under NORMAL use.

Thank you Raymond

I will wire it totally separate – then there should be no problems … I hope
