Has anyone changed the dipped beam xenon themselves? Reading up online it looks like a wheel & liner off jobby rolleyes

Also online sites are recommending d2s bulbs but my manual says d1s. Can anyone shed any light? (280 model on an 08 plate).

Cheers

My SLK55 was a nightmare, wheel off, liner off, got the bulb out but then the balast/ignitor wouldnt go back on so had to remove the bumper and headlight. I could have cried!

Can't remember what bulb, D2S springs to mind though!
