oh yeah! well bak to HID's
My next "Bi-Xenon" mod is to put a second set of Xenons into my fog light spot, and somehow wire it to turn on in place of my brights. The sad thing is thet the 300E doest have fogs in the bumper. Well I am still planning on doing it though.

Haha, the glass marker lights originates from poor babelfish translations of German. Trust me, there all plastic.

there is no such thing as "bixenon" in any reflector set up. Having HID in your low beams and in your fog lights is NOT "bixenon." There are no bixenon specific ballasts either.
The only way to put a real Bixenon Projector to work is like this: You have to get a bixenon projector off something like a BMW 3 series or E60 5 series. Not to mention having to make a clear polycarbonate lens. |

Photoshop?
That would be the solution but is that real or a photoshop? I have bought Xenon HID sets with the moving aperature inside to give you a bi-zenon effect but as pointed out the beam is quite scattered and because of the movement caused by the sleeve reliability is an issue. The best product so far is a combination Low beam D2r bulb and a h7 bulb mounted on top. No moving parts = better reliability. I'll try to post the pictures of the bulbs and what it looks like on my car. FYI I have the euro spec headlight H4 and it cost me $446 plus shipping. Man, I hope that's not a photoshop cause I want!

its real. Met the guy over at HIDforum.com.....unfortunately the forum got hacked so its down for now. Retrofitting a projector is relatively simple. The tricky part was the polycarbonate lens...but from what the owner and I were talking about, the lens was attached in a very "ghetto fashion." Before the forum went down the there was much talk about using new optically clear epoxies to "remove" (ie. fill in) the texture of the factory lens thus leaving one with a clear glass "factory" lens. I'm going to be replacing the lenses on my '94 E420 because of large rock chips. After I remove them I am going to play with the epoxy idea and see how well it works. If it does...........then bi-xenon projectors here I come! HERE are is a place where one can get whatever projector you want. Last edited by AtlBenz; 09-15-2004 at 03:42 PM. |

Bi-xenon projectors
I have a set of bi-xenon projectors in my w126 euro headlights. My setup came from a 2002 audi a6. I currently don't have the high beams wired anymore because i couldn't get them wired the way I wanted. Anyway having the glass fluted lense is definently a disadvantage when it comes to hids. It destroys the cut off step ___/, but I still have a sharp cut off that looks like this ____. Word to the wise though, if you are going to retro projectors in your headlights, PAY somebody to do it. The former hidforum (R.I.P.) and the current hidplanet are great sources of information on xenon lights. You can learn so much. So visit hidplanet to learn more about hids than you may have ever wanted to know.
