I've looked at Hella's and the pair on E-bay, and it's too hard to tell the difference. I'll post the link, but the description does say they are European headlamps and that they are made of glass.

He also says that they can be used with the already pre-wired MB system, but later says included are installation instructions and connectors.

I've heard that the European lights require a 6-pin? or 5-pin? connector. I wonder if this is what is being referred to.

I will go to European when I save the money, I just want to make sure I get the real deal.
