Those are the Euro lights. They look much better and provide considerably more light than the DOT lights.
The vehicle is most likely a US vehicle where someone decided to add the Euro lights to it. I just did the same thing last weekend to the '87. |

Probably Euro style headlights. What does your VIN start with? W a NA VIN?

Quote:
These lamps are excellent, however, none of them last very long compared to the DOT sealed beam units that you are familiar with. |

I thought the S-Class diesel was a North America only vehicle? None of them stayed at home--they all came here-- until the 140, right?

I can tell by just looking at the large bumper it's a US car.

Brian's right. H4's are not cheap...especially the Siverstar's..they are 19$/each. It doesn't matter if its the H4 or the H3(fog) same price. In fact a friend of mine bought 2 sealed beam lights for his Jeep (Silverstar's) and I bought 2 H3's for my w201's Fog lights..same price! 43$

Kris son, you must learn to ebay those Silverstars. I think I paid about $45 shipped on four of the H4s.
