H7 LED Headlight Bulb Clips Holder Socket Adapter Base

I assumed since this fit a 2001 e320 Mercedes Wagon that it would fit the sedan. IT DOESN’T. Who would have thought they’d redesign the headlight assembly for the sedan? I can’t fault the product or delivery or condition of item. I just can’t use it. A new headlight socket replacement part costs about $10.00 and $10 for shipping through auto parts stores, if they carry it. Unfortunately, Amazon doesn’t carry the 2001 E320 socket.

Worked great for 2013 C350 Sport. Used for H7 HID bulbs. Had tried a different type of bulb holder with the cutout but the spring tabs of the other brand did not engage well with light housing like these do. Comparing these bulb holders with the oem Mercedes holder you can see the spring tabs are very similar.

Tried to install Hikari H7 led lights on 2010 x164 GL450. Does not fit - the sheet metal clips are facing the wrong direction. I tried to bend the sheet metal but it’s too soft. Pictures shows OEM (on top with rectangular hole) vs the GZXY H7 clip.

Used these to install new Aukee H7 LEDs on my 2012 C250. One of the clips was too tall. I had to shorten it with a hammer in order for the retainer on the bulb to clip into place. Overall they fulfilled their purpose, but were a hassle to install, and could have been a lot cheaper.

I switch from the stock halogen yellow lights to the bright LED bulbs ( AUXITO H7 LED Headlight Bulbs ) just received & installed them, with some hassle because the tire makes it harder to see where to align the socket housing, so I had to unmout both tires and finally I succeeded, then I insert the LED, twisted counter clockwise to lock it, plug it, and put the dust cover back, that's it. I recommend them widely.

You really have to have one of the headlight units out to understand how these work in conjunction with the Auxbeam LED bulbs, because it's tricky to do otherwise. Once you understand how the clips fit to the bulb, then how it fits in the headlight socket, however, it's easy to do. The black plastic collar comes off the Auxbeam unit with a twist to the left and a pull. Put these metal clips over the bulb with the square-ish part resting on the base of the bulb at the o-ring. Then put the black plastic collar back on, push and twist. The collar can only go on one way, there are little tabs on the bulb body that fit through slots on the collar. There's a little square tab (see photo) on the clip that should be next to a piece on the collar that prevents it from spinning. Once you have that straight, you can put it in the headlight unit. Put the bulb in the socket with the half moon part facing UP (see photo) and so that the two identical side protrusions on the clip (see photo, green arrows) are next to the screws in the headlamp socket, then twist to the right to get the protrusions to go under the screws. If it's not secure, do it again. They don't get really tight, but tight enough and should not wobble. It should be noted that I had to remove the headlight unit from the vehicle (driver's side only) to have enough room to put these in. There are videos out there that explain how to remove the headlight unit. Also, the Auxbeam F-16 LED lights were so bright and the light was so scattered that it will blind oncoming drivers, even when they were adjusted down as far as possible. I ended up buying C63 AMG headlight units to replace the standard halogen reflector-type headlights. (Haven't installed yet, will update.) UPDATE: The C63 AMG-style (projector) headlight units are perfect, with a nice sharp light beam cutoff. I can't recommend installing these in the reflector-type housing.

This DOES NOT fit Mercedes E350

Si funciona pero un venia doblado y no encajaba bien, tuve que comprar otro par
