Clear headlight and HID installation on w210
Hello people, I am trying to help my friend to install the clear headlight conversion on his E430. There a lot that I do not know and I am requesting for help.
First thing first how do I even take out the original headlight??? I took out about 4 screws that are visible but apparently it is still sitting there tight. Any method / special method or some lock I need to unlock? or are there anymore screws?
Where do you guys usually place the ballast? and how?? screws or 3M tape?
As far as wiring I think it is going to be fine since it came with a diagram.
Any other things that I need to know on installing this stuff?
Thanks for dropping by in advance.

First what year is the E430 because if it's 00-03 you will need to take the bumper off. If its 96-99 there are 2 screws in the plastic below the headlight and headlight it self has 3 screws one of them is hard to get its the one that holds the headlight to the fender.
Hope it helps.
