RE: W210 Headlight Removal?

Hey, guys..just be clear (haha, no pun intended) that the lighting potential of the euro halogens such as Inpro, Autodynamics...Depo projector (low beam H7s) is lacking in coverage. I was disappointed and so far, have had to spend another $50+ just to get the Philips Blue Vision bulbs to boost the brightness. Prior to that, I tried the Sylv/Ostram Silverstars but was disappointed. Still, the projector bulbs themselves are the limiting factor, as mentioned previously by zam2000. The beam itself emits segments of beams, varying in intensity, so what you see projected in front of the car are about 4 different paths from each lamp - bright, alternating with dimmer beams.

So the next step is to replace the projector with Hella projectors and reuse the Blue Vision bulbs. Beyond that, HID retrofit if I'm still disatisfied, or OEM HID but I'll lack the clear lens so may not go that final route.
