We measure, not promise.

We compared a typically worn original projector with ours. Same bulb, same ballast, same camera settings.

Measured from 3.5 m

Original projector739 lx
Kit, low beam5,995 lx

The kit also works as a high beam. You can keep the original halogen bulbs connected; then both sources shine.

An electrically controlled shield gives you two beams.

The reflector focuses the bulb's light to the lens's focal point. That is where the shield sits. The lens projects a sharp cut-off onto the road.

Low beam

The shield absorbs the lower half of the rays heading into the lens. The lens flips the image so light shines only below the cut-off. The result is a sharp cut-off that rises to the right towards the roadside. As a result, oncoming drivers are not dazzled.

High beam

A solenoid folds the shield down and all the rays pass through the lens. The cut-off disappears and the light shines like the low beam, plus far ahead of the car. The original halogen high beams shine at the same time.

Why original projectors barely shine after years

Inside the original projector, a reflector has a thin chrome layer. Over the years, heat and UV from the bulb burn it off. The surface turns dull or black and light has nothing to bounce off. The bulb shines, but only a fraction of its light reaches the road.

  1. A reflector that lasts much longer

    The reflector is made from aluminum. It dissipates heat better, so the chrome lasts much longer than the original, and the reflector doesn't warp. Light bounces off the whole surface, not just what is left of it.

  2. Geometry like modern cars

    The reflector, shield and lens follow modern projector design, not the technology from when the car left the factory. More light from the bulb reaches the lens and is then projected onto the road.

  3. Sharp cut-off, clear lens

    The shield is laser-cut, so the cut-off is sharp and oncoming drivers are not dazzled. The crystal-clear lens lets through maximum light and leaves the typical blue edge.

Before you order

Only for original xenon headlights

The kit is for original Mercedes-Benz Actros MP4 / MP5 xenon headlights. Have aftermarket Depo headlights? Write to us before you order.

Lenses must be in good condition

Cracked or yellowed lenses disrupt the cut-off, cause glare, and reduce output.

Road use

The kit is not intended for use on public roads.

Frequently asked questions

Did not find your answer? Write to us.

How do I know I have the right headlights?

The kit only fits OEM xenon headlights on the Actros MP4 and MP5. It does not fit halogen or LED headlights. The surest way is to send us a photo of the headlight from the front and the back, and we will confirm whether the kit fits.

Can I fit it myself?

Yes. The lenses stay sealed, the projector is changed from the back through the bulb opening, and the only modification is grinding off one tab on the shield solenoid connector. The kit comes with a guide with a photo for every step, and if you get stuck, we will help.

Will automatic levelling keep working?

Yes. The original aiming and automatic levelling stay.

What about the high beams?

The new projector connects to the original shield solenoid cable, so the high beams work the same as with the original projector.

Do I need to buy new bulbs?

No. The projector takes the same bulb as the original, so your original xenon bulbs in good condition will do.

Does the kit work on 24 V?

Yes. The shield solenoid works on the Actros 24 V system without any modifications.

Does it also fit the Antos or Arocs?

We have not tried the kit on the Antos or Arocs yet. Send us a photo of the headlight from the front and the back and we will check whether the headlights are the same.

Full kit description

Mercedes-Benz Actros MP4 / MP5 (from 2011) bi-xenon kit includes everything you need to replace the original xenon projectors with new ones. The kit is for OEM xenon headlights. The original aiming and automatic levelling stay.

Why original projectors fade over the years

The reflector in the original projector has a thin chrome layer. Over the years, heat from the bulb burns it off, the surface turns dull or black and the light has nothing to bounce off. The bulb still shines, but only part of the light gets out, which is why new bulbs usually don't help.

What changes with the kit

  • The reflector is aluminium. It dissipates heat better, doesn't warp and the chrome lasts longer.
  • The shield is laser-cut, so the cut-off is sharp and no light goes above it.
  • The clear lens lets through as much light as possible and gives the blue cut-off edge.
  • The projector connects to the original shield solenoid cable, so the high beams work the same as with the original projector.
  • The shield solenoid works on the Actros 24 V system without any modifications.

Measurement

In our measurement, the original Actros projector gave 739 lx and the projector from our kit 5,995 lx. We measured with a lux meter on the same wall from 3.5 m, with the same bulb and ballast.

What's in the box

  • 2× bi-xenon projector
  • 2× bulb holder
  • mounting hardware

Bulbs are not included. The projector takes the same bulb as the original, so your original xenon bulbs in good condition will do.

Fitting

The kit is plug & play: no cutting, no drilling, and the lenses stay sealed. The projector is changed from the back through the bulb opening and sits on the original mounting, no adapters needed. The only modification is grinding off one tab on the shield solenoid connector. All you need is a Torx T20 screwdriver. Not counting removing and refitting the headlights, the swap takes about one to two hours. The kit comes with a guide with a photo for every step, and if you get stuck, call us on +420 736 443 413.

Before you order

  • The kit is for OEM xenon headlights only. It does not fit halogen or LED headlights. Not sure? Send us a photo of the headlight from the front and the back and we will check.
  • Aftermarket headlights (such as DEPO): write to us before you order.
  • The lenses must be in good condition. Yellowed or cracked lenses scatter the cut-off.
  • The kit is not intended for use on public roads. Fitting and use are the vehicle owner's responsibility.
