Pricing for headlights
Headlights $368.88
Shipping 38.00
Insurance 8.00
I was not sure about paying this much but after I installed them I changed my mind. They are well worth it.

Totally understand, but $50 for shipping. OH MY LORD!!! That is just the biggest ripoff. Even if the lights were free that would just chap my hide. One of those principal things I guess. I just don't understand why some people on eBay have to overcahrge on shipping so much.
Time to change you signature to the new and improved look.

Shipping was hard to swallow. But they arrived well packed and in excelent condition.
I did not check from Florida to Idaho what the shipping would be.
All in all well worth it.

Skyfreedom,
Do your new lights utilize the same bulbs as the old headlights? I believe my 99 ML430 uses a H7/low..H1/high and H3/fog bulb for each side. Also, how would you compare the illumination before/after ?
Would you be interested in recouping some of your costs ? I might be interested in buying your old headlights for the right price.... What condition are they in and how many miles do you have on your ML ?

Im not sure about the bulbs, they came with the new headlights.
As far as illumination I think that the new headlights are much brighter and clearer.
Sure I can sell the headlights I can sell them for $150 plus shipping. They are in great condition. My ML has 38k, its 2000 430.
