I wanted to upgrade my bulbs to match my existing factory Xenon headlights. I did a search and I am not sure if the following bulbs are still the same for the 06 E350s:

High Beam - PIAA H7 Extreme White Plus
City Lights - PIAA Platinum Super White 19169
Fog Lights - H11

Are the majority of the E Class here upgrading to the 6000K bulbs? If so, will the PIAA bulbs mentioned above still match the color of the 6000K bulb?

Thanks
Rod

Although I haven't done any bulb upgrades, I've seen many posts of people going with the Hoen Xenonmatch series.

Thanks for the reply Paul. I guess I will try to pull the bulbs myself to check the bulb types.

It would be easier if you just look toward the back of your owner's manual for bulb numbers, then check other vendors for what you're looking for.

I did not even know that it is listed in the manual. I will do that. Thanks again Paul.

I did the Hoen Xenonmatch and don't like them (too blue, both at night and day), I would have preferred stock but since I bought them I kept them on. Easy 10 minute job... I pulled out my receipt and this is what I ordered, $81.89 total shipped for all 3 pairs.

Bulb type - Hoen product code - light type

W5W - w5wf - city
H11 55w - h11f - fog
H7 55w - h7f - high beam

I would assume the bulb types are the same for your 06 E350

According to the manual the city and high beam are the same....uses W5W and H7 55w. However, the front fog lights uses the HB4 51w.

Is the PIAA Platinum Super White 19169 equivalent to the W5W and is the H11 equivalent to the HB4?

for the city lights any 5w wedge bulb should work.

low and highs should be H7, and fogs should be H11.

Thanks to all who responded. I did buy the bulbs yesterday. I even bought the silver bulbs for the front signal lights. Thanks again.
