03' E320 Avantgarde
Smile Xenon Warning Stickers but H7 inside?

Hi guys,

I've got the 2003 E320 Avantgarde and there are warning stickers above the low beam assembly for 25000V, which of course is for Xenon config.

But when I checked inside the housing, there are H7 bulbs?

The stickers are OEM and the H7 assembly seems OEM too so not sure what the go is?

I have already searched the forum for Xenon related questions but none seem to have the same issue.


Any help would be much appreciated!

You might have looked at the high beam bulb. If I am not mistaken, the high beam bulb is H7.

Yeah I thought the same, since I was also checking it at night, but when I changed the bulb the low beam on the blown side started working.

I am not sure if the stickers were a mistake on this car because VIN decoding did not provide promising signs of Xenon option either :S
