Default Best headlight upgrade for e320 square-lighters

I'm posting this so no one else screws up and wastes money or timelike I did..tried several different headlight upgrades for 94 e320 and these are the best http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/86-95...62542129QQrdZ1but..like all of the aftermarket ones you'll find they're 3 prong and not 2 prong, so they'll have to be rewired. After screwing up one pair (they're not like your heavy duty Bosch and they'll scratch/ break easy) I finally figured out the wiring so they function properly/parking/normal/brights/fog/ fog with normal etc etc..which I'll look and post if anyone wants. The lenses are glued they won't unsnaplike your Bosch ones will..I was going to swap the 3 prongswith the 2 prongs from mine, but found it's impossible without drilling the piece out and cracking them or scratching the lenses..so I simply removed the 2 prong and wired from that bypassing the 3 prong plug-ins..Also, like the other aftermarket lights they're like candles compared to your originals, so I (go to a yard and get an old pair don't rip your Boschs apart to do this they're 3-5 hundred bucks a piece) removed the main light inside and replaced it with my H7's from the Bosch. I positioned and fixed them permanantly at a good level but for those who want the vaccuum kit I found that as well here : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Merce...69326912QQrdZ1They actually look great and are bright and little work/retro is needed..After buying a new pair (I scratched the lenses on the first ones $400 a set ouch) I did the new ones in as little as 20 minutes. Anyway, hope this helps..these are sturdy and won't fall apart inside if you hit a bump, are bright and really make the car look newer and not "pimped"...Cheers.
