LED Headlight bulbs
Hello there,
I am new to the forum. I have a 1995 SL500. I am considering replacing halogen headlight bulbs with LED. There seem to be many options out in the market. I will appreciate any related inputs from the members and their advice with the same type of conversation - couldn't find any specific threads on this.
Thank you

You’re better off going HID. Light spread is more akin to your stock halogens so you’ll get more usable illumination compared to LEDs

Kensun HID seems to have good reviews (want 5000K, if HID). Are there any preferred brands that have performed/fit well on these cars? I would like to keep modifications to factory pieces to a minimum.
