I purchased some from ebay to replace the 5yr old xenons in my CLS. MB fitted them for me and they are working nicely. I bough 5000k version, whiter than the OEM 4300K and not blue like the 6000K.

Though the standard 4300k will have a higher light output.

Have you a link for bulbs, looking at chart 6000 is a whiter light than 4300, thought 4300 was supposed to be the brightest (and whitest) ?

4300k does give out the highest light level but tends to be slightly 'warm', hints of yellow. 5000k is a purer white without loosing much in output.

I can't find the ones I bought but a quite search should bring up plenty.
