I'm missed JustinHiFi's advice. He does this for a living and was spot on. My 2005 has the halogens and I had assumed that the beam with the lens was the main beam, it is the dip!
Looking at the lamp and lens assy it is pretty clear the internal lens is not right. Plastic aged or something.
This is really a safety item so did not really have much choice but to buy the L/R assemblies. $375 or so OEM for the pair! The cheap Chinese ones have terrible online reviews, as Justin warned.
There is a youtube video on how the get the front bumper/grill off the car to make the replacement.
Annoyingly expensive problem. The sealed beam glass headlamps on the older C900 sure was a lot better!
