xenon bulb
97 e420.
Sorry, first time with xenon's. I've got a bulb out, need to get a replacement. The dealer wants $175 a piece. Where/what bulb type should I be looking for? The manual tells me h7 for the normal bulbs.
Any help/direction is appreciated.

Actual xenon bulbs are expensive to replace. I think the H7 bulbs are referring to the normal halogen bulbs, not the H.I.D. bulb itself, tho I could be wrong...anyone else?

Cool, thanks for the info. The h7's are halogen only, the manual doesnt give me a 'type' or code for the xenon bulb. It just says, 'xenon'.

Replace both xenon bulbs. New xenons have a different light color than used once.
Also let the garage adjust the lights afterwards.
And last but not least : Read the safty instructions! Xenon uses high voltage !!!
