I was wondering if anyone knows if I can use newer style headlights ( say '90's or newer??) on my '88' 190-E ? I am also considering supercharging my engine ( yea I know lots of luck with this one, lol)...any ideas where I can get a turbo unit for this car will be greatly appreciated...or just tell me I'm an idiot for trying to turbocharge my 2.3 and I 'll give it up...LOL. Thanx -Jonni B

You can buy 2 different style headlights for your 190. Most people go with Euro headlights, but they also make J. Morette headlights which are 2 round headlights into 1. Not the best looking headlights IMO. The best brands for Euro headlights are Bosch and Hella and they are the most expensive. TYC and Depo are the cheaper brands. Try
www.performanceproducts.com for Bosch headlights. Or
www.importvision.com for the cheaper headlights.
Do you want to supercharge your car or turbocharge it? Theyre 2 different things.
Either way you will probably have to custom make it, unless you have a 16V. Mosselman makes a turbocharger for the 16V. Theyre a few people I have seen with custom turbochargers and superchargers. I seen a supercharger made for about $400.
