Where to get those items at discount price?
Also on sport package the car equipped with - LED tail lights are installed (I believe), so would I need the complete MY04 tail-lights
assebmly or only lenses?
Is there any issues with installing MY04 xenons?

2001 S500, But I drive an Oldsmobile...
Hey so, I'm just curious, cuz i'm really new to the world of Mercedes, but if my dad were to ever let me mod his S-Class, What would be involved in converting the 2001 ghetto fabulous Xenons to the 2003-2004 Bi-xenon with the clear lenses...I think the Xenons on our car look nice compared to both the halogens on the lexus and the sealed beams on my cutlass, but the clear lensed ones look sickest...whats involved? is it just a bolt-on type of thing? or do I need to make mods and like hook up new ballasts and ignitors and lights and crap? anyone?
Thanks

Its okay, my dealer told me that all the parts and stuff bolt right up because its all the same body. I wouldn't need to make any mods but the parts would work out to around like $5,000...canadian.....so maybe if I sell my car....haha

when you paint the grill it truley does give it a different look
