Mercedes-Benz CLK320 Headlights

Drive your vehicle safely in bad weather or low-light conditions with a pair of bright, durable aftermarket headlights for your Mercedes-Benz CLK-class car. You can opt for different bulb sizes, bulb types, lumen amounts, and housing to suit your tastes. The following five questions and answers address the specific features and benefits of Mercedes-Benz car lights.

What are 4-side patch LED lights?

Patches are not unique to LED lights. You can use them with any type of bulb, such as CCFL (cold-cathode fluorescent light), halogen, xenon, and high-intensity discharge (HID). Patches are an aftermarket modification that enable your car lights to breathe while keeping condensation to a minimum. They are especially helpful if your assembly is sealed beam.

Most factory lights are composite beam. Whether you have composite beam or sealed beam, the addition of a patch for your car is worth considering. Be advised that the emitted illumination of sealed beam and composite assemblies is just as intense and effective with or without patch treatments.

What bulb sizes are available or compatible?

Several bulb sizes are compatible with the Mercedes-Benz CLK class vehicles. Standard bulb sizes range from h2 to h23. Some older CLK class Mercedes-Benz models require 9004 bulbs for their high beams and low beams, while other model years require H7 or HID bulbs.

If youre interested in changing your light assembly entirely to accommodate newer bulb technologies, consider a conversion kit or a newer lighting type engineered to fit older models. Both types of assemblies are available.

What are Mercedes-Benz CLK320 CCFL halo projector lights?

"CLK320," as you already know, indicates your Mercedes-Benz class of coupe. Halo projector lights send highly concentrated beams of light out in front of your vehicle. The "halo" denotes the shape of an angels halo, essentially resembling a circle of light. Projector lights work when a U-shaped reflector focuses a bulbs light and upper and lower shutters cast the light beam down or straight ahead, minimizing scatter.

Cold-cathode fluorescent light (CCFL) gives off very bright, intense illumination when ionized gas interacts with a phosphor coating on the inside of the bulb.

Can you use HID bulbs without a ballast?

No, you cannot. If you already have a ballast, purchase bi-xenon and xenon HID bulbs to use with your existing ballast. Without a ballast, your HID bulbs will most likely not emit light, and if they do manage to emit light, they will burn out prematurely. The vehicles ballast works in conjunction with the gas inside the bulb to produce the initial spark. That spark arcs continuously between two electrodes, which is how the bulb gives off light. A ballast controls the flow of electricity, preventing overvoltage and untimely burnout. A ballast is sometimes sold as an "igniter control."
