Anyone know how to change the xenon lights on a 2003 SL500 over to drive in France. Not getting much joy from my MB dealer - they just tell me it's very difficult. Any help gratefully received.

LINK to picture to let you see what is going on inside the light when changing the leveller...
There is a thin steel strip in front of the lightpattern shaping plate that sits between the reflector and projector...that steel strip gets pushed up creating a flat line instead of the cut line that is responseable for the actual lightpattern...
The leveller is on the leftside of the picture...
greetingz,

The MB Dealer suggested phoning head office... which I did. The woman in customer support couldn't understand why the headlamps needed adjusting for use in Europe. I had to explain!!! She confirmed there is no MB part for this.
Just come back from Halfords with my £6.49 worth of stickers and yes section 72B of the instructions shows the E class Xenons.
Question: Do I stick them on the outside of the plastic lens or on the inner glass lens?

They will probably charge you to put them back again though!
