Dealership wont activate my HID's... HELP!
I recently had 8000k HID's installed into my 2002 ML320, mind you my car has Halogeon headlights, not bi-xenon... anyway, my dealer refuses to activate them, and Its being a pain in the butt trying to find someone who can do a simple 5 minute process by going into the DAS and activating the xenons to present. Anyway, i was wondering if any of you NJ guys has a dealership that would do it, regardless if they bought the truck there or not. Here is a list of dealerships that definately said no...

Can't blame them for not doing it. They are most likely not MB units and they do not want the liability nor the legal responsibility if they are in fact illegal lights. They have too much at stake.
