Mercedes-Benz E Class HID and LED Lighting Upgrades
Upgrade your Mercedes-Benz halogen headlights to HID lighting giving you the look and feel of the factory installed Bi-Xenon headlights. Our Mercedes-Benz kits are not the same as the cheap "too good too be true" kits found on Amazon or eBay.
Originating in Germany and designed to work with the complicated factory CAN BUS electronics of the Mercedes-Benz, our installed kits come with a 2-year "no hassle" replacement warranty. We do not use resistors that will eventually fail to "trick" the factory system into thinking that the halogen bulbs are installed as the other kits that do not work after one of our infamous winters.
Access 1 Alarm & Audio has "peace of mind solutions" for all Mercedes-Benz vehicles and can upgrade the headlight marker lights with optional LED bulbs as viewed in the before and after images located in our Photo Gallery. CLICK HERE

Pretty much everything! With the new Viper Systems even the way we integrate the remote start system to your vehicle has changed. With the introduction of Viper's digital solutions no more are we going wire to wire on the newer vehicles. Today we load a digital remote start system up with vehicle specific software and connect it to your vehicles data system which will send the commands from your new remote control, factory remote control or your smartphone to start, lock, unlock, slide open the doors or pop your trunk. Further, Viper released a few vehicle specific T-harnesses that allow for up to 70% of the wires to be now plug and play with factory plugs. We just unplug your factory harness, plug it into the Viper harness and the reinsert the Viper harness into your factory plug location. This ensures a reliable connection that will not come undone and makes for a cleaner looking installation. Your mechanic or dealership will love us!
