2015 Mercedes Glk350
**New Glk350 Owner**

Just got my Glk350 2wd , with AMG style package. 12/23/16 with 14k miles on the clock , drove from Vegas to Orange County ,

Ca to pick it up with a buddy. Fell in love with the suv last year when the work shop next door had one parked out front. Already did LED upgrades on the Headlights and Interior lights. On order chrome door handle inserts , rear tail gate trim piece, inside door handle storage cup bins. Next major change is clear bra thru my business , coilover suspension and 3 piece wheels. Names Ben from Las Vegas, NV.

it was pretty straight forward. just had a pain getting the old bulbs out the housing. But I sell them at my shop. 6500k 3200 lumens output. There the ones with very small drivers and fans on the heat sink. they say leave oem covers off for better air flow. I didn't install with the anti flicker boxes , but lights seems to be working fine. I haven't drove it around to much since it's my weekend vehicle. but installation 2/5 on the hardness scale due to the pain of bending to hold tabs on the original h7 bulbs.

Installed H15 LED High/DRL lights super bright ,, Had to shave off bit of the ears on the Led's. A bit of a pain to fit in the light housing but got in there.

Is this plug and play? Also, is it CAN compatible? Any photos of the actual bulbs? Thanks.

OK, is it plug and play? I think you mentioned you had to modify something? Also, you didn't use the CAN compatible, so did you have any computer messages from this? Thanks, Glenn

EDIT: Never mind, I got the answers. Thank you for all your info, I'll check with my wife if she wants the nice bright white headlights.

It's weird I plugged them in without the resistors and it worked fine. I got a error msg like twice and hasn't came back since , I still have the resistors in the box. The 013-015 have this headlight plug with 3 prongs with 2 being to be pulled away from the light to free the bulb. Its a pain in the rear. Not a smart setup but better than the older H7 holder.
