Re: looking for NEW euro headlights
Just make sure you purchase the correct lens for LHD
Never have had an issue with keeping my lens bright and clean

The trick is the OEM Australian headlight protectors.

Re: looking for NEW euro headlights
I've seen them for sale to USA from Germany's http://www.carparts-online.de/ . You need a web browser that can translate German website, and buy for your driving side of the road, but they sell both L & R side driving cheaper than most
Note: I don't know if they are legal to use in USA where they must be DOT approved to re-sell your Sprinter Certified, so hold onto the old ones in case your Sprinter needs Gov't inspection.

Re: looking for NEW euro headlights
good deal
very cheap from this site are these really good quality? i wonder why if you buy the original headlights from Mercedes-Benz dealers the price has tripled or quadrupled  compared to these?  they seems the same product

Re: looking for NEW euro headlights
US headlights use H7 low beam and H1 high beam & fog. The headlights from Germany use H7, H7 & H3, without any particular order mentioned. Because of the bulb differences, US bulb sockets may not fit the German headlight housings.

The difficulty is the change for the headlight vertical adjust servos. Some servos have a short actuator, some have a long one and they aren't interchangeable... Cheers George
