2008 E350 Hid headlight

[Blownbyyou]

So my mother inlaws E350 needs a new headlight and considering that both her sons couldn't add wiper fluid to a car it has been tasked to me! (plus she watches my daughter two days a week so I kind of want to be nice to her).

My question is its saying she has HID's which I don't doubt. My question is i have read a shop should do this. I am assuming this is plug and play but considering I have never touched HID's I figured I would ask.

Second question is where should I get replacement bulbs? I looked on rock auto and see they have some for 60 bucks a bulb. However if I google one of the part numbers amazon has this for 30 bucks for two. Are there a difference in the bulbs or is it similar to HDMI cords where there isn't much of a difference.

super easy to do. If you have any experience with a car shouldnt take you longer than 20-30 mins. go get the bulb from advance. should be around 75-120 bucks.

I've heard Mercs do not like cheap bulbs.

So its just a straight swap then, okay not worried then...

Yeah they should have the box hid bulb. should turn 90 degrees out/in and a simple plug.
