I have posted advise against doing ANY business with those people - Be warned.
I bought Hella Euros in a GB for my W124 from PUMA.
See them at: http://www.puma-access.com
Called them today. No Euros. Can order from Germany for $700 per pair.

Yucky "resin" lenses

The fact is that even Taiwan Euro headlights that are made of glass will not get foggy or "frosted" like the "resin" (when something made of plastic costs more than $100, it seems to be called "Resin") ones on the 1996-2004 models.

Look at ANY car with plastic headlights four years later: the headlights get foggy and make the car look old.

Old Taiwan glass will look better that newer Euro (or America or Asiatico) "resin" at all times. I imagine they will pass more light, too.
