I upgraded mine in the ML55 to 8000k. All you change is the bulb. 6000k will give you the most "viewable" light. Anything above changes the color of the light, my 8000k light up blue, they are "whiter" then the ML55's stock 4300k bulb. Originally it was a temporary fix but I have grown to like the Bluish light and you would be suprised how many more looks the car attracts now with the different color bulb.

Euro43: I am using xenotronic bulbs or something like that... You should look for a hella or philips bulb. Xenon bulbs are very hard to come by around here so I bought what I found.

55 Fanatic: My friend said that for projector headlight the xenon bulb is called D2R and for the non-projector headlight it's called D2S. Should I be looking for D2R bulbs coz I'm not whats the code or name of the xenon bulb.
