Actually, I don't know what kind of headlights will come to my home address.

Let's say that I'm looking for possible trouble solution.

If you get a 4 pin male headlight the 6 pin connector on the cars harness will fit onto it, but you will definitely lose the function of the parking city lights. I have not seen any of the crystal headlights with parking / city lights (maybe the projectors or some of the new weird looking ones have them) but yeah the parking / city light is pin # 5 or # 6 for me.

F**k, I'll have to find some good car electrician to fix that...
Those projectors won't be that without city lights...

yeah you have a couple of options, either remove the city / parking light from the original mercedes housing, screw a hole for the pin and secure it in the aftermarket light and install the light and harness. Or if you don't care about the parking / city lights somehow you might be able to put a pin in the female connector at the city / parking light position to "complete the circuit"? to stop the bulb light coming up on the dash.

I want to get rid of the check bulb light as there is nothing plugged into the city light female car harness, the best I can think of is just putting some metal in the connector and I assume this would complete the circuit but who knows, I don't know much about electronics lol anyone?
