xenon headlights

Hey MBWORLD, I am new here and I have a question if you could help me out. I have a 2003 E500, (non-sport) and do not have the xenon headlights. Is there any way I could get them. If so, about how much would it cost? Thanks.

I just got a quote from mbenznl to upgrade to bi xenon $1250 (used) original MB.

Is it worth the price?Or should I consider HID?

Any other option that I should consider?

I have an 03 e320 with halogen lights.

Thanks.

Thats a really good deal, even though HID's look amazing if you could pay a couple more bucks here and there then thats I would get the HID's, but I would take the offer if its legit. Either way your car will look 5x better.

That is an amazing deal. It would cost way more then that to add it from the factory.

It's a bargain. I was quoted approximately $1500 CND per housing for new lights from the dealership not including labour. I hear it's around that ballpark in the US as well.

If you're not in a hurry and are patient enough you can find some really good deals on eBay from time to time. I ended up paying $600 shipping included for both, but I found they usually only come every so often.

You should try EBay Germany as there are a lot more available there but not everybody accepts paypal over there.

Is it difficult to install these Bi Xenon upgrades.
If I buy from MBenznl, they will install it for $100 extra?
Any Thoughts?

The Front Bumper MUST be removed to replace the headlights

Then Version code the car to Xenon Present via the Star Dia aka SDS

Please contact Steve @www.MBENZNL.com

I have just picked up the bi xenons and haven't installed them yet.

MBenzL seems to be the way to go as they seem to be pretty highly regarded. A guy named Steve who is on the forum is really helpful with installations and information. He got back to me with tons of information and help. I suggest you contact him about it.
