These are observed listing prices and can change. Chassis verification and the exact packing list are more important than styling labels.
Headlight upgrade versus body conversion
The headlight project focuses on lamp housings, wiring, monitoring, coding, sealing, and beam alignment. A body conversion adds trial fitting, panel preparation, paint, brackets, sensor transfer, cameras, radar, cooling openings, exhaust finishers, and calibration. Its labor and contingency budget is therefore much larger.
W463 versus W464
W463 and W464 are not interchangeable platforms. Confirm the VIN, chassis code, production date, wheelbase, trim, and original equipment. A product title that lists several G-Class models should always be followed by written fitment confirmation for the exact vehicle.
Detailed compatibility guides
Review the W463 LED headlight guide, W463/W464 G900 body kit guide, and G63 W464 Brabus Rocket 900 body kit guide.
Total installed cost
Before ordering, obtain a workshop quote covering removal, trial fitting, paint, wiring, coding, diagnostics, calibration, beam alignment, consumables, and additional parts. Inspect deliveries immediately and test fit body components before paint or modification.
Frequently asked questions
Which Mercedes G-Class upgrade should I choose first?
Choose the project that solves the main need. W463 LED headlights are a focused lighting upgrade, while G900 and Rocket 900 body kits are larger exterior conversions requiring paint, sensors, wiring, and more labor.
Are W463 and W464 body parts interchangeable?
Not generally. The generations differ in body structure, mounting points, dimensions, lighting, electronics, and sensor systems. Use a vehicle-specific kit and obtain written VIN-based confirmation.
Does a G-Class upgrade require coding?
Headlights, cameras, parking sensors, radar, and other electronics may require coding, fault clearing, or calibration. The need depends on the original equipment and conversion scope.
What should I confirm before paying?
Confirm fitment, the complete packing list, material and finish, pair quantity where applicable, module and adapter requirements, paint needs, shipping protection, warranty, and return conditions.
How should I budget for installation?
Include removal, trial fitting, paint, panel alignment, wiring, module transfer, coding, diagnostics, sensor calibration, beam alignment, consumables, and contingency parts. Obtain a written workshop estimate first.
