2019 G550 Headlights

Hi ,

I have a 2019 G500 , it came without the new headlight design (angel eyes) . MB and local importers are quoting more than 10k USD for the upgrade , this seems outrageous , any ideas where i could find them cheaper ?

Thanks ,

That seems odd. I have heard the prices for the new headlights are around $5K each.

If you install the new light, it has to be reprogrammed, I don't think you can do it yourself, and dealer most likely won't do it either since you didn't purchase it from them

Are you inn the US? Is headlight even a option on the new G? I don't see that on the order guide. I know if you order the night package, the headlight has the "black" look, other than that, I don't see any other difference

I think it’s not just the headlights but there’s are other electronic items that come with it that need to be installed but I could be wrong
