And can some one tell me what should I be searching for to find clear headlights (not projectors) ??

And what about these, considering biding for them
Should I bid for them??.. its hard to know if their of a good quality or not??

They seem like great value..

I have those cornors and i love them. the light patteren is like ribbed or concentric semi-cirles(what ever your flavor). But teh only thing is you have to have some sort of clear or chrom bulb, if not, it looks like crap. Something like this would work.

I'm pretty fond of the stock tinted taillights, but if I were to look for aftermarket ones, I'd want ones that are stripey like the pre S550 S-class tails. I've seen this on a W203 on the 405, and it looked really clean.

hmmm.. Ive been searching for some LED tails for a long time.. but I want really dark tinted lenses.
found em once and bought them.. but I had my money refunded after waiting 2 months for them as they were supposodly damaged in shipping and returned to germanparts4you.com. they didnt have any more to send me wither.
I was so pissed.. they were nice and dark and LED.
but the search continues!!

the second ones down dont look too bad actually.. but I still want them to be tinted dark.

stock tails, tinted, with LED lighting (i wetsanded/buffed/polished them since this pic)
http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f307/rmanisme/w202/121_2196_r1.jpg

I purchased a set of the "eagle eyes" led tail lights (last tail light pictured) and was quite displeased with the quality. The crystal headlights pictured are from the same manufacturer. I wonder if they are as shitty, or maybe mine was just bad luck.

and i really like those 203 looking tail lights. hmmmm..... tint those...and mate them to the LED units...

Those turned out pretty nice mang.. got any recent pics of them to see how they look since the wetsanding and polishing?
the ones I originally bought were darker then that I think. but thats an idea.. buy a set of the LED tails and just tint them myself.
do you think the tint would stand up to the elements well?

no recent pics, i actually waxed the whole car today and hit up the tail lights once more. Not perfect, but they are glossy. Just imagine that pic with more reflection to it :D

as far as standing up to the elements, it should. I put 2-3 light coats of tint, and a gazillion coats of clear.

I originally got the LED tails to tint, but that went to hell. That pic is of the LED tail backing, with tinted OEM lenses. I am pretty happy with the outcome
