headlamp

Anyone had any problems with the plastic headlamps discolouring? Mine were pretty bad when I bought the car ('05 350). I used a Meguiars headlamp lens renovation kit which cleaned them up pretty well but now after a few weeks in the sun they're starting to discolour again. Seems to be UV...

If I recall, the HL washers are meant to activate every 12 squirts (or so) with xenon lights. This does happen if the lights are on (as you would expect) but only per journey. Once you turn off the ignition, the count resets to zero, meaning that the washers are hardley ever used. Is this...

Hi All, I bought a lovely 2005 W211 E320cdi a while ago and due to family reasons, had to store it for a few months without using it. Now I want to use it and have a faulty o/s xenon headlamp (low/dip beam). The nearside is fine. I changed the bulb to no avail and then changed the balast over...

Hi, can anyone help to identify this headlamp glass?

So the £5 deflectors you can grab on Amazon .. is there any special consideration with bi-xenons (eg. cause problems with self-levelling, etc.)? Or do they do the job just fine? What do you normally do when crossing the channel for a couple of weeks?

Hi all, Just got my E320 cdi back from service today and was told that the linkage to the headlight self level control is broken on the rear axle. Anyone carried out such a repair, is it difficult? Regards Chris.

As title, must be good condition and fully working for facelift model Thanks

Hi, Is there an online resource that I can use to find out genuine and oem alternative part numbers ? Where you enter your VIN and then search for the part with a diagram and number ? I'm looking for the bulb dust cover for the low beam halogen headlamp for a 2010 W204. Would the local dealer...

Has anyone got a driver's side headlamp wiper arm for a W124? Trying to remove my driver's side wiper arm so that I could refit it so that it parked in the right place, I managed to snap the cast bracket thing off. Failing that, what's the part number? I can't find it on that russian site.

I am fitting headlamp washers in the Viano when I can find the parts to fit the bumper, epc does not have the latest part numbers and look like a complete bumper is needed. Anyway, I have fitted the dash button and pump and washer bottle, with the harness and new relay all good there, I have...

Good Afternoon, My Drivers Side (RHS) headlamp wiper motor has decided it doesnt want to work anymore, if anyone has one spare please let me know Many Thanks

My 500sec is missing its headlamp wiper arms, anybody happen to have some for sale? Thanks!

Anyone have one? Its for my C43

For some unknown reason, my indicator stalk headlamp flasher seems to have stopped working. Normal dip and main beam work as they should though. I wonder if there is a relay that controls this, if so, which one, assuming its in the box behind the fuses. Car is a 1991 260e petrol Help...

Hi All, Something to note is that my W209 CLK failed it's MOT on Friday as the headlamp washers don't work. They never have in the time I have had it and I don't care because I clean it regularly (plus, we have had it on a Star and it's not a simple pump/switch replacement issue). New rules...

Morning everyone, I need to convert the beam pattern on my lights to drive in Europe for a month. Handbook and dealer say it is a dealer only job, is this true? If not, does anyone have a link for a guide on doing it? I have other vehicles where there is a lever on the back or top of the...

I have a S320 cdi W220 2001. I few months back I had a broken clamp on my turbo and exhaust fumes had been leaking under the bonnet, some of the smoke seems to have fogged the inside of the drivers side headlamp lens. When you open the bonnet the lens looks like its held on to the main light...

I now have all the parts to fit HID headlamps and the correct OEM self leveling to my W208, I have fitted the rear level sensor and the holes were there pre drilled, when I got to the front I was unable to locate any pre drilled holes, does anyone know if they are on all cars when they are made...

I have this strange problem with my C180 (w203), I get a very bad rotten smell when I use the headlamp washer, but no smell when I use the wiper washers. Wiper washers actually give out fragrance of screenwash.. Apparently the tank for both wipers and headlamp washer is same but I only get bad...
