LED-Conversion-Kit Mercedes-Benz Vario

With the LUXX headlight conversion kit, you can upgrade your Mercedes-Benz Vario to state-of-the-art Nolden AVEGO or AVEGO Edge LED headlights.

Nolden Cars & Concepts is a German developer and manufacturer of high-quality LED headlights and a Tier 1 supplier to vehicle manufacturers (OEMs). Scheinwerfer LUXX integrates these lights into various conversion kits to upgrade older vehicles with cutting-edge LED lighting.

Two generations of Nolden LED headlights are currently available. 3rd-generation LED technology is used in the Nolden AVEGO, while the 4th generation is used in the Nolden AVEGO Edge. You are free to choose between these generations.

AVEGO

AVEGO headlights are available in two versions: "O" and "U". This refers to the surrounding light guide, which either encloses all four sides ("O") or is masked at the top ("U"), causing the daytime running light and position light to illuminate in a "U" shape.

AVEGO Edge

The AVEGO Edge represents the successor generation to the AVEGO. The low-beam headlight offers 4% more output and provides broader, more uniform illumination. The high-beam headlight delivers 22% more output.

The daytime running lights, position lights, and turn signals are no longer designed as surrounding light guides but as prominent, beveled bars at the top and bottom. Additionally, a matching set of tail lights in the same design is now available, allowing for a cohesive lighting look all around the vehicle.

Both headlight types are IP6K9K certified, meaning they are waterproof at a water depth of up to 1 meter for up to 30 minutes. The LUXX LED Headlight Conversion Kit.

The Scheinwerfer LUXX LED Headlight Conversion Kit

The mounting bracket is made entirely of A2 stainless steel and powder-coated in RAL 9005. Custom colors are available upon request for an additional charge. Most edges are chamfered to counteract the tendency of powder coating to pull away from sharp edges and to improve the unit's look and feel.

Our conversion kit utilizes the original halogen headlight's mounting points and existing connectors (a six-pin socket for low beam, high beam, position light, and ground). Due to the new daytime running light function, there is one connection not found on the headlight unit itself that you will need to wire up manually. The wiring harness includes a long lead that must be connected to terminal 15 (any contact that is live when the ignition is switched on).

The entire conversion process is described in detail in the instructions. A quick guide for the initial headlight adjustment is also included at the end; however, you should have the alignment checked by a professional workshop after installation.

What is included in the LED retrofit kit

The LED retrofit kit contains everything needed for the conversion:

  • 2 x LED low-beam headlights with daytime running lights and position lights
  • 2 x LED high-beam headlights (AVEGO) or high-beam headlights with position lights (AVEGO Edge) An optional turn signal integrated into the high-beam headlight is available; however, this is not permitted under road traffic regulations (StVO)—only two forward-facing turn signals are allowed.
  • Mounting studs for the headlights (part of the mounting kit)
  • Complete mounting kit utilizing the vehicle's original mounting points
  • Complete wiring harness utilizing the vehicle's original connectors
  • Complete screw/fastener set

Options

Headlight leveling system

If the vehicle requires a headlight leveling system (mandatory for vehicles first registered on or after January 1, 1990), our 12 V or 24 V leveling system can be ordered as an option. Due to the different headlight geometry, mounting points, and actuator travel paths, the original adjustment mechanism cannot be reused.

The actuators also feature IP6K9K protection.

LUXX LED Headlight Conversion Kit for Mercedes-Benz Vario – FAQ

Do the LED conversion kits require official registration?

No, the kits do not require official registration. The lights do not either. The lights bear all necessary approval marks; therefore, they do not need to be—and cannot be—registered.

Is headlight range adjustment available for the LED conversion kits?

Yes. A headlight range adjustment system with IP6K9K protection is available.

Are the Nolden AVEGO / AVEGO Edge headlights waterproof?

The Nolden LED AVEGO / AVEGO Edge headlights are waterproof according to the IP6K9K standard.
They remain watertight at a depth of 1 meter for 30 minutes.

Is installation complicated?

No. The installation process is very well documented. Essentially, it involves nothing more than tightening screws and nuts and connecting plugs. Only a single wire for the daytime running light actually requires manual crimping.

Why should I switch to the LUXX LED headlight conversion kit?

Lighting performance—and therefore safety—is significantly improved. Furthermore, the original headlights for the Unimog are no longer available.
