Daytime Running Lights‎ without Bi-Xenon package

Hello,

I've been trying to find a pic/video online on the look of the Daytime Running Light of a GLA250 that without the Bi-Xenon package with it's engine on. Yet couldn't find any so far. reviews on YouTube are those with Bi-Xenon, the pics in MBUSA.com official GLA250 gallery are also with Bi-Xenon...

To make the story short, I got a aggressive quote from a dealer 150 miles away on a loaded GLA250 with premium package, sport package and multimedia package, illuminated star and illuminated Door Sills (wasn't able to find this add-on on MBUSA.com).

Everything seems good despite it's missing the Bi-Xenon package. When I was test-driving the GLA last weekend at a local dealer, I was driving a GLA with the Bi-Xenon head lights, which looks beautiful.

I've already committed to the quote from this dealer 150 miles away and going to sign the contract soon. I'm just very curious on how the Daytime Running Light looks like without the Bi-Xenon...

If its anything like the CLA without the bi xenon package, then the high beam lights are lit on low power. Honestly a deal breaker for me

OK. I just found a photo of a GLA250's Daytime Running Lights‎ without bi-xenon package:

Indeed a deal breaker.

I dunno...still good-looking.
Does look better with the LED treatment, though.

I priced the swap for you all at the dealer. Around $3500 to upgrade to the LED DRL lights if you did not order it that way. Ouch.
Don't worry though, I'm quite sure SPYDER will make an aftermarket set within a year. I have SPYDER's aftermarket headlights with integrated LED's on my SLK55 and they are brilliant. (and only $400)
