Thinking of replacing my 03 Bi-Xenons with Euro-spec 03 Bi-Xenons - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

Question: is it a straight swap? any special wiring involved? Any info or help is appreciated. TIA!

Not really sure what the difference would be between the two, Bi-Xenons are Bi-Xenons.

is N/A spec bi-xenon headlights have an amber turn signal bulb and an amber reflector as required by DOT. Euro spec is sans amber turn signal bulb and sans amber reflector as seen on the pic below.

I like the amber better myself

.

Not able to help much as far as the wiring being the same, I believe what i have available in the shop is all US spec, so I wouldn't even be able to cross-reference it. Only tip is that the headlamp range motors in the new headlights would need to be normalized and the adjsutment checked with an optical headlamp aimer.
