Coming to this late, but what Osram NightBreaker versions would I need for a 2001 SL 500?BTW, if you do want to improve the perfomance of the main or dipped beam, look at Osram NightBreaker or Philips Xtreme. They offer much brighter light (though at the cost of reduction in service life). It's an inexpensive upgrade and it's perfectly legal.

Good to know. What do you suggest as solid replacement bulbs that will help with brightness ? I want to keep stock system and not upgrade the wiring.Osram Nightbreakers are third rate bulbs now .

Not who you're replying to, but I am trying to figure out which version of the Osram Nightbreaker Silver (that you suggested) for my 2001 SL 500. It's currently halogen (that is what's stock, correct?)Where are you looking?
Both the Philips Xtreme and the Osram Nightbreaker are widely available on eBay and on Amazon.
Your handbook will tell you which type of 'H' bulb your car needs. Most Mercs (if not all) will be using H7 for the headlamps, but again it's worth checking the owners manual to be sure.Not who you're replying to, but I am trying to figure out which version of the Osram Nightbreaker Silver (that you suggested) for my 2001 SL 500.

I see H1, H4, H7, H11, etc and I am out of my element here
In the owners manual it says I need a halogen type 9004 for high and low beam. Im not sure I need four though -- when I checked and replaced it with LED bulbs I only saw one bulb per side.If you don't have the owners manual, you can check here:

A quick check I just did suggests that the 2001 CL is indeed using 4 x H7 bulbs, but check again using your car's registration.
