300C HID's on a 300 Limited???

[1badvanilla300]

I have a 300 Limited and would like to upgrade to HID's. Will the OEM 300C HID headlights be a direct bolt on plug and play install on my 300L?
Thanks

No.........unless u buy a whole new front bumper with the headlights.

The 300c headlights are rounded and the Limited's are rectangular. Sorry

Just buy an HID kit....about $200 from Stealthauto.

Plug and play

without projector 300c lamps you will be illegal in most states. the lens you have was not designed for HID bulbs and will blind oncoming drivers. I continue to see this in rice burners and now a crap ;load of Escalade wannabes. Please think of the other drivers and get the Projector lamps if you want HID...

Would these work for a non-c? I got a 300 Touring with no special addons.

Technically, yes - without the HID system installed at the factory as a OEM piece they will be illegal. HOWEVER, you will not necessarily "blind" other drivers. The rice rockets you refer to have obviously not spent the time to re-align the lights. HID's shine much different than Halogens, and even if your headlights were straight on prior to the install, just spend the time and do it right. Take a look at some of the Acura's out there with HID's. They DO NOT have projectors - but come from the factory with "standard" headlights.

I would highly recommend Stealth Auto - not only because I know them over there on a 1st name basis, but because their product is superior.
