UGh, low beam light is out

It was fine today when I had them on, when I went in the store and back to the car. WHen i turned on the light my message came up said left low beam defective. I got out and my left headlight is out, I was in disgust. How hard to replace the bulb in terms of access to it?

Depends on what side.. The passenger side is fairly easy but the driver side can be a bit tricky..

Mercedes E350, E550s on it's way!
Well, for me when I changed them on my E350, it wasnt that complicated, but depending on the postioning of your motor, SMALL hands are a necessary. Theres a cap you need remove by just turing, the houseing unit for the light is boom right there. The trick is getting the new light in, not really out.

Dont know if that helps you out at all but, in reality the task in relatively easy and about a 10 min job tops

very easy to change whether you have HID or halogen. if you have HID...see if your dealer could repair/replace it under warranty.
