- Is this a good kit? If not, could someone point me in the direction of a good kit in the simliar price range.

$200 for the headlights. call them up and tell them you saw their ad on mercedesshop.com. they list it for 250 but will reduce the rpice.
- Is there anything else I will need that isn't in the kit? (Besides tools.)
The kit has everything you need.
but if you bought the parts seperately you'll save about 50 or so dollars.
- Labor. My mechanic is a relative (I pay him with pastry , nice deal huh?) and knows his way around a Mercedes very well, especially because he owned mine before I did. He says he should be able to do it, and it won't take him that long. Is he being optimistic? How long did the labor take eveyrone else who did it? Am I in for a PIA?
labor is no more than half hour for someone who has done it before. maybe an hour if it's the first time.
