Question on Xenon HIds in 2000 ML55

732 Views 4 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  Noodles
I have the regular Xenon HIDs in my 2000 ML55, and they are yellowing and did polish them, but they still look yellow.
I saw on Ebay with Bi-xenon and LEDs by Depo for like $450.
Anyone tried them?
Are these any good and since mine did not have bi-xenon, can they be wired
to my car?
The Hella's are quite expensive, almost like $800 per side.
and they also come in Bi-xenon, did not know if they work in my car.
Any suggestions would be great.

The key to restoring headlight housings is to have all the oxidation sanded out. I recommend the 3M kit with the drill attachment as sanding is more effective with a drill. Then you use the sealer and the clear coat to protect the housings from the sun's rays so they stay looking sharp.

Yea you need to really sand the oxidation off, the drill attachment works best as the drill sands better than doing it manually by hand.
