Hi All,
It appears to be fairly straightforward to upgrade '86-'93 W124 headlamps: simply install European assemblies.
However, how does one improve the 94s and 95s? Is the assembly of these cars the same as that found on their European counterparts, with perhaps only the lenses differing? If so, could one install H4 bulbs?
Also, is there a US importer of European lenses/ assemblies for the late model 124s?
Would love any experiences on this one!
Thanks in advance
farrukh

1994-1995 US Spec W124 uses H4 bulbs, Pre-1993 uses 9004 bulbs. Euro-Spec uses H4 bulbs However, to my believe, US-Spec and Euro-Spec has different pattern on the lenses, thus a little bit different light output and pattern. Generally speaking, US aims lower then Euro-Spec. Euro-Spec gives a broader, further lighting.
