Be careful of the aftermarket conversions, many are not DOT approved, you will not have auto leveling and thats illegal in many places and FYI 6000 gives off far less usable light than the 4300s that MB uses. You can also create electrical problems and cause much damage as the current draw could be much higher than the system was designed for.
Had great luck with the carlab kit. They advertised around here. Plug and Play rugged and simple. No modifications required at all. Hardest part was getting behind the headlight of my E500

Did you have to take to the dealer to change the ECU to Xenon or there was no error message??
I've had bi-xenon lights installed as an original option on a car that is now 4 years old. The first year I had numerous cars flash their lights at me thinking that I had my bright headlights on, but HIDs are now more common and that does not happen. Every time I use the lights, the automatic leveling occurs with the lights moving up and down at first to get the angle correct. I don't understand how that kind of sophistication can be found in an aftermarket plug in conversion kit. I've gotten blinded by the poor qualities of the aftermarket lights on cars (they obvously weren't standard on these cars), and other drivers have also, and those drivers then get mad at my lights that are well controlled and legal. Definitely purchase the lights as an option on your new car, but don't fool yourself into thinking an aftermarket purchase will work the same.
we all know at the time of build it is a 900 dollar option. He was asking about afterwards as an OEM upgrade what would it cost in parts and labor should the dealership to the install
