Xenon Lights added on E320?

Im in the process of buying a '03 E320 from dealers in the NY/CT area. Cant find any left that have the sport package or Bi-Xenon lights. I think I can live without the sport package but I feel stupid paying this much money and not getting the Bi-Xenon's. When I asked if they could be added the dealer told me it was not possible as its only done at the factory. Is this true?

No, you can add them after the fact. You will not get cornering or self levelling functions, but the advantage of the projector HIDs is still significant without these enhancements.

Contact Steve (MBenzNL) to get a price on the headlights. He is currently traveling but should be home early next week and can help you out then. Tell him I sent you! e-mail: s_krabbenborg@hotmail.com

isn't it expensive to add bi-xenon's afterwards since they need to add xenon for headlights and hi beam both?

Rock.

it will cost you around $1,500. When you get it installed, make sure you have it programed for Xenons in order not burn the modul. Some dealers may not program it. Some high class tune up shops have 'dealer connections' check with them.
