Xenons W202

[racall]

How easy is it to fit Xenons on a w202? i've been offered a pair.They have three electrical plugs on the rear.

1 Whats the third electrical plug for?
2 do they have the ballasts resistors built in?
3 they seem to have a lever around the third electrical plug.
4 from the info i have given are they really Xenons ?
Many thanks

Ballasts are separate and are mounted behind the front bumper. The ballasts cost more then the lamps if I remember correctly.

Alps may know also - I think he might have fitted Xenons to his C36?

Will was spot on,

if they are real xenons then; -

- they will have D2R printed on the glass
- also if you take the bulb cover off it will have the xenon bulb holder (black and red)

I have a set of ballasts for sale too
