VIPCHOI · 07-05-2012, 02:46 AM

looking for some smoked side markers for my 2012 C250 Coupe W204.
The orange side markers are

All the ebay ones I found has the ugly thick outside chrome borders.
I don't want to paint them black and euro bumper is too expensive...
suggestions?

if you look on the splash guard in the wheel well there are 3 black pegs, remove them, fold the plastic back and you will be able to reach into the bumber and unclip the lights from the bumper, also unplug the actual light by turning it and pulling it out of the housing, now just pull the orange part out from the bumper

might just have to paint them or tint spray them.

Anyone know the benz part# for the front orange side markers?
Link to parts catalog?

Did you took it off or just masked and painted there? I had a E350 and changing the side markers was really easy. But I like how the tint paint looks. My C250 is Steel Gray and I think black markers will look better.

yeah took the side markers off, 3 clips on the inner fender well and side market just popped off, easy...should lightly sand them evenly, some spots the tint spray didnt want to stick, love em

They look really similar to the ones on my previous 2011 E350. Does anyone know if they are the same or not?

You could also use tinted Lamin-X film.
