Hi. I have a 2012 c 250 and one of my xexon blubs has gone a shade of pink. This means it is aging and will need to be replaced. Can the hid blubs be changed with out removing the whole front bumber? And what brand do mercedes use? TIA

 

Hello and welcome to the forum! I've attached a link to our site's DIY tech article where this procedure is gone over. Lastly I'm attaching a link to our catalog where the bulbs are available. Mercedes uses Genuine parts, but Phillips is an OEM supplier as well. Please let us know if you have any questions!

It is recommended to change them out in pairs. If you don't you will see a big difference in the color. I had one go bad in my Jeep Cherokee and I replaced it, tested it and could not believe the difference in the light output.

Just my $.02 worth
