Talking Hello MBWorld!

Hi all,

I'm Jeff and I live in Cincinnati. Just recently picked up my MB, a 2014 C300 Luxury. Really looking forward to conversations on here with you all. Also looking forward to the group's feedback on mods and stuff like that.

Thanks. I will check out your site today; thought about upgrading the headlights. I have heard it affects the warranty through Mercedes though, can you confirm that?

To be honest, I have yet to hear warranty being denied due to swapping out the bulbs as lighting upgrades is pretty common and bulbs are considered consumable item that you don't need OEM to replace (like tires, oil, filter, etc), but it is possible if you have a really bad dealer. The good thing is, swapping lights out is a pretty easy DIY and can just as easily be reverted back to stock if you're taking in for warranty work.

Oh ok, thanks for the info. I swore I read somewhere that because of the additional wiring needed it changed the context of the warranty or something. Oh well
