Hello,

I am looking for a set of Euro headlights for my 1988 300E. I don't need the wiper motors (the wipers are not that useful anyway), however, I also need a pair of the small trim panel beneath the headlights (my current trim panels have holes in them for the wipers).

If you have a pair for sale, please email me or post a message on this board.

One more thing...I know that the Euro headlights use H4 bulbs, right? So, does anyone know how to convert my existing wiring harness (type 9004) to the H4 type? How about the fog lights? Do the Euro headlights also use H3 (same as the U.S. lights)?

Thanks in advance.

When you go to euro headlights, the entire headlight unit is replaced. This inludes headlight, foglight, and adjusting systems. Since wiring to the bulb is inside the unit, the difference between H4 and 9004 is irrelevant. The Euro unit will come with all required internal wiring. You will, however, need to convert from a 4-pin to a 6-pin connector to connect main wiring harness to euro unit. Foglight bulb is H3 in both USA and Euro units.
