    thought I might share these musings...I bought a control module off eBay, xenon headlight control module. It is a Hella unit, same as the Mercedes OEM but half the price. I fitted it myself - (quite easy) only to discover it didn't activate the main beam. After a few phone calls to Mercedes I...

    W211 Bi Xenon flickering

    My nearside headlight has just started flickering. Those that have fixed this, was it the igniter unit on the back of lamp or the control unit under the headlight? Is there a way of diagnosing without replacing various parts? Many thanks all.

    W212 which xenon bulb??

    One of my xenon bulbs is starting to go pinkish so looking to replace the pair. Which ones are as close to oem as possible osram or Phillips? And what colour temperature are the oem bulbs 4100k or 4300k? Obviously getting them for merc is ridiculously expensive so not going down that route!

    'Intelligent lighting system inoperative' warning, and one xenon bulb is out

    Any thoughts or advice is welcome! I am hoping it is just that a bulb has gone, but I'd have expected a message that the bulb is gone rather than a message about the ILS. There's also a message that the Adaptive Lighting is inoperative. Funny enough the cornering lamps that are part of the ILS...

    Xenons on a non Xenon CLK

    I am desperately wanting some xenons on my CLK. Are you able to simply buy the bulbs that give off the Xenon look or do you need to totally replace the headlight? If its just bulbs does anybody have any recommendations?
