Mercedes ML and GL Headlamp Upgrade

I didn't mention in the video--HID bulbs come in A and B orientation. For this vehicle, the correct bulbs for the low beam are H7B.

Tips for Headlamp upgrades for you x164 or w164 Mercedes
GL350, GL450, GL550, etc.

I’ve got to do this myself and your video is going to help a lot. I’ve saved it and will report back after job is done. I think I’m going to go with the LED’s TY for the video.

Thanks for sharing! didnt know this. I did HID setup for the low-beams and LED seetup for the high-beams

I thank you for your detailed explanation of this ML bulb upgrade. I've got a 350 ML MBenz. The factory bulbs are exactly as you stated. The light is terrible. I ordered the clips. I'm just changing the low beams. I will let you know how it turns out. Thank you. MG

Best adapter video yet. I wonder if it is the same as the W166?

Thanks for the info! I'll order the led with the clips preinstalled, I ordered some clips from Amzn and it does not fit the led bulbs. Anyways, do you have any recommendation about the parking light LED replacements, I tried three sets from Amzn and all of them are blinking (errors). It does not look good if the parking lights are halogen yellow and the headlights are LED whites.

Nice video. Great idea to take out the entire housing in order show the installation. Is is relatively simple to take the light housing out? If so, why not do this to install the new bulbs? On a RAM truck, the best way was to take off the grill and the light housings and replace the bulbs (LED) which should never have to be repeated. I am wondering if the ML350 has a similar (done once) process that would make it easier. Also I noticed that you chose LED for one beam and HID for the other. Was that just to show both processes? Doesn't it make more sense to go with LED or HID in both low and high beam? And you did not show (or need?) a ballast for the LED bulbs? I needed something like that in a RAM for the low beams to prevent flicker. Thanks.

P.S. I would go with the LED on replacement impact alone.

HIDs look brighter, could be due to lower kelvin temperature. LED looks nicer.
BTW, could you please share the LED bulbs link?

And did you get any errors with the LED?

Thanks.

For the factory harness the brown n yellow wires which goes to the red n black on the hid kit?

Hi, so the led will not fit in to the low beam without the adapter?

[edvaru]

Great video, do these LED still show message on the dashboard?

Nothing easy here, You are better off removing the headlight assembly.
