240ADAM Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Go to Kmart and buy some Xtreme metal krylon, yellow of corse and put about four or five coats on your existing high beams. Then you dont have to mess around with wiring up the mercedes ones. Quote Link to comment

Pacific coast Datsun Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 I used stained glass paint..4 coats. Also Krylon X-metals paint works great. Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 i like the old benz ones thats what i have on my car and there just as bright as my h4s Quote Link to comment
ariascarlos1990 Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 There are lots of different ways people do this. I for one like the film it does't fade unlike the painted or benz lights. and it comes out a way brighter/better than any other options I've seen. heres the difference Mercedes: Krylon paint: Film: just my Quote Link to comment
Cuts metal like mad Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 I like the fact that the benz lights are FOG lights, if you do an H4 conversion on the low beam side, they should be bright enough (both hi and low) that it makes having the inner highbeams redundant, but having fog lights in that position looks good and keeps your frontend clean (no need to install fogs on your bumper).
