Will these DEPO headlights work? 2002 S430 currently w/ halogen - See link to product

Hello,

I recently purchased a 2002 S430 with what I believe has halogen headlights.

I've read countless threads on the topic of updating to projector HID lights. From what I've gotten, you will need to purchase a new projector headlight (preferrably DEPO brand), then buy a separate HID kit to install within this new projector.

On this website, I found these headlights that look like it will work. The projector headlight and the HID setup. I called them up and the guy told me it was a simple plug and play installation.

I was hoping that one of the experts can tell me whether or not this is compatible (i.e. simple plug and play) with my current headlight OR if this is a cheap way of doing it the normal way (i.e. buy projector and HID kit separate).

Link to website and item: http://www.autodynamic.com/detail.as...ZS0004PHCC-HID

Thanks in advance for your comments.

Hi ! Provided you have halogen headlights ,this kit is perfect for you.It's a direct troublefree replacement. The price is right and the quality of the DEPO brand is superior.
I aquired the same DEPO kit for MY2001 S-Class BUT since my car was equiped with OEM xenon, I was advised NOT to install it due to incompatibilities with the automatic headlight leveling system of the car...So kit stays in my garage :-(
