CLS 63 S AMG , s500,clk550
nice car..since its an s5 i pretty sure it comes with stock xenon headlights.. i dont think you can do xenon tail lights..correct me if im wrong.

dont forget the side LED's those are probably the cheapest to upgrade and then the front yellow reflecters can be upgraded to clear ones.. looks good though stock...

What ever you do stay away from house of imports , they do crappy service. i had my car there for almost 2 months because of airmatic problems, and it is still not fully fixed. After that i must have brought it back about 4 times (no joke) bad service and faulty work.

Anaheim Mercedes and Laguna Mercedes are pretty good. When i went to Anaheim the service manager came out and explained what was wrong with my car, i did not have the work done at the time cause of price, but he was like no problem and continued to show me what was wrong. Cool people there the service advisors are young and not knowledgeable but you ask for someone to explain they will get them with no attitude. I have only been there twice and both times there were great.

hey gondon

For the clear mirror signals and bumper lights, I got mine from express body parts. Here's their site:
http://www.123mercedes.com/w220/headlightsclass.html

Looks like you already got the 03-06 headlights, now you gotta get the tail lights or else it's pretty goofy. New style headlights and old tail lights. Check out the site they have a lot of stuff for our S-Classes.
