Yes, get the MY02 Bi xenons. It's not a direct drop in.

Minor wiring required, tons of people have done it. Go to formymercedes.com for the kit.

is it easy to do, or willl I have to get someone to install it.. I'm not to much into heavy wiring. WIll the car recognize the lights or screw things up due to the light being stronger. I tried that once in a BMW and had to get computer reset and had warning messages forever....thanks for the into
