RetroFit Lab Bi-Xenon in Halogen model
Hi All,
I've installed a LED kit in my 2005 E500 Halogen model (No errors, flashing, anything!) but it is extremely Dim due to the Halogen reflectors. I am looking into doing a full HID conversion and found this one on Retrofit Lab. Could I buy this and have everything necessary to get bright light with no flickers or error messages?
It is also a Bi Xenon kit, so would that mean rendering my current high beams as useless? Would there be any further wiring changes necessary to make this work, and what would I do with my current High beam bulbs?
Apologies for all the questions, I am just tired of mediocre light output from both halogen and LED options.
One last question, would LEDs in the fog lights have the same issue with the reflectors?
Thank you so much for enlightening me on this topic (see what I did there?)

Hello
For replacing to be bi-xenon, recommend to get the projector so called EVOXR-2 for left hand drive available in aliexpress. It will be very shiny due to the like mirror reflector and clear lens. The projector will be bolt on. Also get the xenon kit so called Hylux 2A88 can-bus for error free from aliexpress as well. Bulb type can be either D1S or D2S(+adapter) for this projector. Not sure abt. the wiring but the wiring for shield of high beam may need to tap with existing wire in the housing. I did up grade my projector bi-xenon from stock to so called hella g3 (right hand drive in Thailand) so I have nothing to do with the wiring.
Good Luck
