TRS HID Kit
Put these in my dad's new car as a $60k car doesn't come with HIDs no more on Mercedes 
I think they look great and really identical to my lights on my CLS.

Yes, I think it is H11 or H7
Yes they hella do!
Don't get DDM tuning, I had them on my E500 and they would overheat the ballast and started to smoke. Just get TRS, they have a real and GREAT warranty. Your car though

i have the xentec now and they seem to be great... the light output is awsome except one of the ballasts failed on me so i replaced it well see... if they fail again i will get the slim CAN-BUS Ballast Error Free this is the link and the orginal price is $169 but seems like on sale $85
http://www.khoalty.com/hid-xenon-replacement-kit.html
but same set on ebay $60
http://www.ebay.com/itm/181037661266...84.m1423.l2649
THIS is straight from their FAQ
What is a CANBUS BALLAST FOR?
It’s used for any flickering on your HID lights or if you have a light out message on your dash.
-CANBUS BALLAST WOULD FIX IT ALL…
What are the most affected vehicles?
-Audi, BMW, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Mercedes, VW
Can I install this ballast on a non CANBUS set of bulbs?
-Yes
Is this the same as a capacitor or canceller cable?
-Yes, because the CANBUS ballast comes with an integrated Capacitor.
Is this ballast universal for any HID kit?
-Yes, and they are plug and play to your HID bulb.
Can I use the ballast even if I don’t have any issues with my HID lights?
-Yes, CANBUS BALLAST will last you longer than any other ballast, plus it will help to have an error free HID kit.
and if anyone is wondering who manufactures them... they are made by "Khoalty"

so this would be the correct set for the E55 fogs (9006 bulbs) and 6000k temps - right?

Haters crazy
Hids are never "standard" on Benz, its an option, hence why your dads 60k vehicle didnt have it.
You get what you pay for with the China made brands. I wouldn't touch anything that isn't osram, phillps or mtec.
