Nope, doesn't support xenon headlights. There is a European third party (including Brabus?) that offers aftermarket kits, but they look kinda weird. From what I've heard, the headlight housing for the G500 would need to be redesigned to support xenon lights...which probably means a redesign of the front of the vehicle.
Also, Xenon headlights aren't ideal for offroad use as they are more fragile, harder to repair, and need a very clean front glass to work well. That being said, I'd pay more for them if they were available from MB.

Thanks...
I have seen the brabus front light kit replacement, which is staggered look with a 45 degree angle... Wierd look.
I prefer the original MB look, just wish those round lights are xenons. But oh well.

Thanks,
I have seen the Brabus version of the headlight replacement kit. It looks wierd, with 45 degree angle lights.
Anyway, I prefer the original MB round look, just wish they were Xenonx. Oh well, we will just have to stay the MB orig for now.
