Hi,

I have a 2018 e 400 coupe with multibeam headlights, I’m planning to facelift the front only. Will the parts be easy plug and play or would need manual adjustments? Front Bumper and headlamps specifically. Please let me know! Thanks!

thanks for the prompt response. I don’t have a front camera so hopefully that makes the facelift a little easier. Most likely the bodyshop or an indy euro shop would be able to do the coding. What is multibeam mopf? I was thinking of just getting the multibeam headlamps off ebay. Please let me know what are your suggestions

when you buy old headlights they are with old vin number and need a “Monaco” specialist for coding. But if you can find a xentry my specialist can code your car . I pay 300€ for codes. Original and healthy headlights are difficult to find… all cars are crashed or with water damage. Be careful! New multibeam with moduls in EU are 2000-2500€ for both

Do you think I can use the old prefacelift modules for the the facelift headlights, will that allow me to skip the coding part?
New headlights are very expensive and hard tk find in the US.

For some reason, In the US, new lights are 3000+ each. Which makes me choose used ones off eBay. I found a good quality left front light with modules. But can't find left front light with module. Do you think I would be able to swap the modules from the pre-facelift headlamps to the new ones? Use new 2021+ headlamp with my 2018 multi beam modules?

I really appreciate your assistance. Thanks!

colleague, both front and back need coding. Many customers from a simple headlight want a multibeam. it works great and you can sell the old headlights quickly

Hello... First of all, I want to apologize for my English. I have a few questions about the conversion. Do the holes in the bumpers and lights match the holes in the bodywork or do I need to modify something? I mean if everything fits plug and play. In my w213 there are multibeem lights or facelift mutibeem will work normally and do you need to replace the wheel arches. Thank you very much and please reply.

Nice work! 😍 Do I understand correctly, in the front you have changes the bumper, headlights and bonnet, but no need to change the fenders?

Are the parts a direct fit, or did you need to do some modifications to the mounting parts?

Very nice! What year is your car? Is that an E300 Sport? I have a 2018 E300 Sport -- and I was actually looking to go in the opposite direction -- below is a picture of mine -- and I was looking to go with the "black" grill and less chrome. Is there an AMG or black, little to no chrome grill for the 2018 Sport model? Thanks in advance.

Of course, there is plenty of options to buy on the bay of e's... but check out the link (below) to a UK-based seller I've purchased from in the past and can vouch for. See if there is one that you prefer...

BTW, mine is a 2020 E450.
