    The W202 headlights open very easily. You can do whatever mods you want, and seal the unit back up.

    as a general mod, that doesnt look bad. For a mercedes, that looks dire.

    why would you waste your time with putting audi headlights in? why not put W204 Headlights on instead? that seems more fitting... even at that imo it's a waste of money...

    ^ I agree with the majority... why not try to add some upgraded benz flair like these fogs instead.

    I think the Audi lights aren't tasteful in the benz. if you want some upgraded headlights get some projector housings and some decent HIDs. They will also have the benefit of making night driving much better.
    Completely mad.
    '99 C230K, intake and exhaust more on the way.
    '86 MKIV Escort RS Turbo, stock for now, chip and more boost on the way
    '75 Fiat 124 Spider, koni shocks, bigger carb and drilled/slotted brakes
    to tune and hoon the mbz master race.

    Our opinion has nothing to do with your dedication to mercedes-benz. My opinion is: if there are some aftermarket headlights you like get those instead as they will be either plug and play or close to it. Not only will it look much more proper, but you won't have to spend so much time and money! Everyone else's opinion is probably the same besides what i said about the aftermarket headlights. I think based on my experience they would say either get the crystal clear headlights or stick with the stock headlights. Another thing you can do to make it look better is switch the headlight lens and add an led drl kit like a couple of the members have already done.

    Yes, the Audi headlights was probably a stupid idea.
    But you speak of switching the headlight lens? Which one?

    I want to get a cleaner look. My stock headlights are full of those small lines (sorry for my poor technical english). I want the headlight glass to be 100% clean.

    if it's just that it's dirty and you can't clean it off you have two options. Option 1 is to clean it and Option 2 is to get new headlight lenses... If you are talking about the fact that it's white looking then get crystal clear aftermarket headlights... the others can chime in and give you more info... i have not changed my headlights/ headlight lenses yet so I only know what the options are... Good luck!

    Oh yes I will! Dont know about the States, but here in Scandinavia they cost a s***load of money... $350-500 i'd say.
    I want THESE! Does any1 know if its complicated to install xenon?
    Edit: I also heard a rumor that its not possible/not legal(?) to install HID on the hi-beams. Is that right? Im a noob at this

    there's many factor's dude... first, is it pre-installed and second you could just get your own hid kit and put it in the headlights, and finally the bulb size makes a difference... link me dude!
