I have a pair of hella front headlamp clusters (dual round glass lamps) that came out of late 80's mercedes - I think these same clusters were used on mid to late 80's bmw 300 series too. I thought about trying to fit these into my 89 240 to try to improve the lighting. I know it would probably require rewiring a complete new circuit with proper relays but I'm more curious at this point if anyone else has attempted this same conversion and if they were able to successfully fit them. Rough measurements look like the fit would be tight at best - just wondering if anyone else has already tried and could share their experience.
