Upgrading G55 headlight.
I bought new headlight for my 2003 benz g55 and I’m very happy to have them. But there is problem. I did install them and working fine but headlight is upside down. Low bean is pointing high and high beam pointing low. I did try to turn them but now i cant bolt them down. Im really frustrated bc cant figure it out.
please someone out there help me. Those are pretty expensive headlight and dont want to break them.
thanks.

Is the headlight physically upside down, or do you just have the Hi-beam connector on the lo-beam and vice versa?
Shiann here on the boards is documenting all of his work on his 2005 G55 and he has a post on headlights, he'd be able to steer you in the right direction.

Great that they were able to solve that for you and get you a new pair.
Those look pretty good and subtle (my JW Speakers are not subtle). How is the light output compared to stock and where did you buy them from? I'm sure other members on here would like to know all the options for upgrading the older halogens, also considering these look like direct bolt OEM looking replacements.
