One of the issues with the new headlights is cost. The cost to replace one MB head light assembly can be as high as $3k. Since there are no bulbs to replace, the lens is integrated into the rest of the assembly, there is very little that can be replaced/repaired. If the lens cracks, you have to replace the whole thing.

With the old Euro MB head lights, if the glass lens cracked, pop a few clips, removed the old lens and put a new one in. Bulb goes out, open the rear, and simply replace the H4 bulb. Done. The Euros were miles ahead of the old sealed beam lights and yet easier to repair/work on.

The new stuff, while pretty...are far to costly and not justified in my opinion.
