Anyone interest in OEM xenon headlight set ? $650
As part of upgrading my family W211 to xenon, and decided to go with the OEM one instead of aftermarket HID kit, I was hooked up to a connection where I could get an OEM set of W211 xenon for $650. The only catch ? I have to buy at least two to get that price.
The headlight was pulled from 04 W211 cars, in which dealer pull out OEM xenon set, and put in halogen set. I think the reason they do it is for fleet sale of those car as new model arrive.
The lights are in excellent condition. Bi-xenon. Came with ballast & D2S & all bulbs, just as you found in OEM set. No broken tab nor any scratch on them. So again, they are not new, but simply because they were pulled from new or demo car. Light set came in OEM Mercedes box. List price for the headlight is $1800, and the best price I found out there is in the $1200 range.
I will take pix and post tonight. Most Mercedes dealer would reprogram the car computer to "Xenon exist" for either free, or small tip to technican (mine did it for free). Take them about 2 minutes w/ the Star Diagnostic tool. If you are handy, you can replace the light yourself, or have body shop do it for about 1 hour labor. I paid $85 to have mine installed at a bodyshop.
If you're in SoCal, you can check out the light, and save on shipping too. For more info, contact me via hhbk@yahoo.com
This headlight is plug and play for all W211 (03-06), and the HID light is about a thousand times better (brighter) than the H7 halogen stock headlight
Will post pix tonight or tomorrow morning.

Some pix I just took. Btw, $650 is the price I paid, and since I'm not making any profit on it, if you pay by payPal, pls take care of payPal fee. Check or money order is fine. Local pick-up is prefered

Hi Zam,
Sorry, I don't need your lights but would appreciate some advice.
I have a 99 W210 (e300) with factory halogen.
I bought a set of 99 Xenons on ebay.
What will it take for me to upfit my car with these xenons?
Thanks
