Im not sure what would be better. I would do LEDs. The reason I went with piaa is that they are the same bulb type and you dont need any resistors.
Are the C Classes eyebrows the same as the E Classes city lights? Thats what I always thought

It looks like we hi-jacked this thread...but I'm definitely a fan of the HID conversion kit that you are selling. I'm still in the market, I'm at the edge of buying 3 conversion kits! 
I checked out the LED link and it looks promising. In the pictures, it looks blueish... To the buyers, how does it look in real life? Is it bright? Does it work well or is it just eye candy?

They look really bright because I didn't have the headlights on.

Here is an example of our HID installed in a Halogen housing, the car is a 2000 Infiniti I30. The beam pattern is clean and does not scatter like other hid kits, and the projection area of visibility is similar just brighter so you can see better. Thanks~
P.S. beam may vary slightly upon different vehicles such as (YR make model and height, for examples for trucks or SUVs, the cutoff may be higher)

Hi,
Most of the time both lights needs to be plugged and if both don't work, it means the polarity might need to be reversed which is very easy just take out the wire harness male plug from the ballast, flip it 180 degrees and plug it in. Most of the time, this should work. Thanks~

All orders placed before 3pm PST yesterday have been shipped and you should have already received a tracking #, if you didn't, please call 860-821-8212, your order might be delayed due to (1.) needing confirmation because you input different billing and shipping information (2.) your order did not go through
Thank you!

Hello. I can't seem to find the warranty information in hidextra.com website for the H7 and H11 HID conversion kits. Is the two year warranty (mentioned in this thread) exclusive to MBWorld members?

Hi,
Yes, forum members are entitled an exclusive extension on our warranty,
so if you ever have a problem and the customer service says one year, just say you were from mbworld.org forum and they will know you were offered a 2 years warranty.
Thanks!

Now the fog lights are another story. They only work with the car off!!
As soon as I turn the car on they start blinking.
The same thing happened with my last pair of HID fogs..I thought these would be different..Please Help!This is a link to the video of the lights blinking (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqkxEsvDfmM)

Hi Dynomite05,
Did you get a Special capacitor for your fogs too??? Sorry if I made a mistake earlier saying fogs do not need capacitor, other cars don't need capacitor for fogs, but ALL beams on mercedes would need special capacitor.
Please let me know, if not, I'll send one out to you, please email me info@hidextra.com with your order# and full name. Thanks!

Ok, I was able to install the headlights with no problem. You could see the difference 6000k makes.

Questions to those who installed the kit:
- Where did you place the ballasts? Got pics?
- Did you zip tie it or just stick it on or both?
- If you made a hole on the rubber dust cap, what equipment did you use to make it?
