Hello and welcome

Worth cleaning/polishing the headlights to remove any scratches. Then fitting some osram night breakers and checking that the alignment is correct

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone specifically mention the C class but it does seem this era of Merc’s with halogens as OEM are truly shite making a chocolate tea look very useful in comparison. If your lamps are in good condition then any halogen bulb upgrade is likely to be futile. An after market xenon kit or retrofit is the only way.
