    okay.. so you bought the top ones then.. the ones with the extra pin on the headlight plug.. and the city light bulb.
    $400 to $200 is a big difference!.. what is there such a huge price difference between the top and bottom set of projectors?... they both seem to be the same light (except one has an extra bulb in it)
    would the ones at $200 be okay do you think?

    I want to get a set and have projectors now!!.. then when I finish mine I can just swap them out for my custom ones.

    YEAH, that's what I'm talkin' about. I would have done that to the other one anyway. Just bake a crystal clear corner open and paint the housing.... ORRR... wait a few weeks for it to come out on ebay. =)

    this may be a ridiculous question, but to my knowledge, nobody has asked it yet.

    can you screw around with the connecting pins in the headlight to get it so that your high beam becomes your normal light and vice versa? that seems like it would be the easiest way to get around the trouble. screw all that custom fab to get it in the right slot.

    Guys! I've done some pic of the Titanium
    projector headlight and wheel but dont
    know how to post pic....

    As for "baking" the clear corners. Don't try it, you will warp the assemblies. The corners don't use the same type of adheasive as the headlight lenses. If you wan't to get them apart, you will need to cut the lenses off.

    I already did this with one of the "ruined" clear corners I have. Most of the interior of the light is red, going to try a little less red on the next one.

    That's not a fair representation of what they would look like anyhow. He just photoshopped them darker, which would be the equivalent of tinting the front. If I understand the description correctly, the "titanium" version would be a clear front with a black background, but the reflectors would still be reflective. In other words, it would look like the factory tC lights:



    Or even the 2003 GS300 Sport Design package headlights:

    projector lights

    at ebay, i noticed that some say that their lights will only fit into U.S. & canadian models.

    * it fits on stock 94-00 Mercedes Benz W202 C-Class all models (C220/C230/C230 Kompressor/C280/C36/C43) for the United States and Canada version only

    why is this so? I knew that post 96 models have different lights.. but didn't know that U.S. & canadian models were different.

    I found out that some lights sold at ebay has 4 pins while some has 6. is this why u.s. spec lights would not fit into my euro model?

    what would i have to check before i order a clear headlamps for my euro spec. c200?

    I believe that the euro spec headlights have the vacuum adjustable leveling.. (6 pin conector) and I guess the seller doesnt offer this option in the headlight.
    anyone confirm this?

    i'm gonna say, i don't really like the way it looks on the cars. I think it ruins the simplicity of the car by making the front all complicated and obtuse looking. I vastly prefer the crystal look. just me though.

  24. #74
    Just some questions.

    I have bought crystal headlights for W202 and fit them into my C200 year 95 car. I then replace the original yellow bulb 55W with white bulb 110W.

    Will there be any side effect of using bigger power of 110W, since the original power is just 55W.

    Hope to get an answer.

    Thanks in advance !

    Outside of toasting the headlight wiring harness, flames bursting out from under your hood, and the ECU going wonky, no side effects to speak of.
