Around 5000k is a lot better and has a less cheap look.
But thats personal. You didn't sit still this weekend :yes:
Actually, new Mercs also have HID 8000k or LED 8000k. It's stupid, i agree...
Didn't know that. How many lumens do they out of this bulbs?
I can't imagine Mercedes isn't installing some quality bulbs so guess they made a big improvement with light output of the higher spectrum bulbs.

If it's fine for you i havent said anything;)
But if you do a lot of night driving i can reccomend the 4350-5000k bubs.
You can notice this difference well on a dark wet road.
I would do alot night driving unfortunately :(
But yeah I will give it a try buddy too see what it's like :) thanks :D

Try go for a claim? At least get some money to help pay for repairs or even deposit for a new car? Or what's the plans?

Discovered the buttons on the seats actually do something.

Always thought they were supposed to move the whole seat, turns out it's lumbar support.

Only been over 2 years I've had the car! [emoji23][emoji23]
