I've only tried LED headlight bulbs. My SLK had standard H1 halogen so I replaced them with LED. They were ok and definitely better than the halogen, but I then tried 35W HID that were better still. I will be replacing the indicator bulbs soon as the colour has fallen off them, and I will be trying ...

I think with only 183 registered users this forum is going to have little dynamism to attract more users. Sad really as I actively avoid Facebook and all other social media sites.

Oops, missed this. Having posted in other areas I'm a bit late here. My name is Tony and I like cars, well old cars. I currently own a 1999 SLK230 which has been in various states of decay since I bought it in 2016. Previously I've had a plethora of Opels, Vauxhalls, BMW's, Mercedes, a couple of Tri...

I used to like retro fitting different engines in to cars, but with all the regulation these days the politics is making it a chore. I have my daily driver (a modern), and my SLK for the sum...
