| Description of the problem | My 2017 mercedes benz gls 450 has standard halogen lighting from the factory. It has very poor visibility in rainy,fog conditions. Also very poor visibility in urban areas where there is partial street lighting. The low bean headlights are too dim to see infront of vehicle. This is very big suv and feel it is safety hazard to drive with the standard lighting. |
