Hello. Can anyone give a review of this HID kit? Does it work? Any problem?
Thanks.

There is a seller I bought the HID kit from for $100.00 on 6000k HID kit. It has built in warning cancellor and works great. Let me find the seller and I will post.

Here is the URL for this seller. You want to pick a "Digital Ballast Kit" for built in warning cancellor.

i bought a kit from a seller on mbworld, but the error canceler kit was optional, said I might need it and I might not. Any input on the chances of needing it? I'm thinking about just saying fock it and give it a try, but then I might just put em in my mustang and buy the ones with the built in error cancelors

The seller above I have mentioned also sells the warning cancellor separate. I have tried both HID kit with and without warning cancellor and yes, you will need one for S class.

If you don't have projector lens and trying to upgrade, that is a good deal but I do not see anywhere about the warning canceller. It will be annoying if you have to deal with warning light on your dash.

That kit is what I have on my 03 S430. I got the 6000k HID kit and it is a true plug and play. Although, you will need to drill a 1" hole on the back cover to get the wires through and be creative to mount the ballast on very tight space, especially the passenger side.

If you're getting a kit, go for the 6000K or 8000K.

You might not get pulled over for having deep blue or purple lights.
But if you get pulled over for something else, those blue or deep purple headlights will be added to your violation.
