theres quite a few that have, most will swear by the Depo headlights, apparently they are the only ones available with the adjusters, I have seen other members here have good luck with the DT Moto headlights as well.

Yes you have to take apart your factory head light trace we’re the wires go to from the connector and connect them to the wires that go to the bulbs of the new headlight

I think the factory HID lights on a W220 are the best I've ever had on any car.

Ever.

How are these an "upgrade"?

Looks?

Because, at that price, there is no way that the beam pattern, brightness, or quality is anywhere near the factory lights.

Looking cool at the expense of performance is a fool's errand...
