Yes, I have the OEM 2005 Blinkers...They come with the bulbs already pre-built into the blinker unit.

LuxuryC240

ok, how much do those run you, for future reference?

kevblah

I paid $57.40 for the pair from Foreign Motors West, so they shouldn't cost you too much more than that. Expect it to be around $70 probably.

LuxuryC240

That's actually cheaper than I was anticipating...Thanks bro...I did it so quickly today I actually forgot I installed clear side markers, lol I also picked up an OEM chrome license plate, amg valve caps and some meguiars from the dealership...so nice out today..

kevblah

Yeah, it got a little breezy, but it was a lot nicer than it has been.

Yeah, once I figured out that I could buy a lens, as opposed to buying a whole new fog light unit, I was so excited and made the purchase almost instantly.

I got the chrome license plate, too, just last week. I got the slimline design with no wording. I didn't want to 'poser' with AMG frames, and I didn't really want the Mercedes Benz plate just because I thought it'd seem like I'm flaunting it. I mean, it's pretty apparent if you know ANYTHING about cars, I don't need a frame to tell peopel what it is. lol

I'd like some pics of the AMG valve caps, not sure if it's really worth the money and/or if it's even noticeable at all. And scumbags might steal em just for fun.

ahhh i want HID fog light, might as well buy a cheap one about 50bux

kevblah

Yeah, the Sylvania Silverstars ran me $50 at AutoZone, but they're pretty good...well, that's my opinion. I'm sure some people on these forums have some pretty damn bright fogs, but I'm comparing the silverstars to the stock ones, and big improvement.

LuxuryC240

I paid only $37 at Autozone!! did we get different lights or something?

kevblah

Possibly, there was another pair of Sylvania 9006 for around $37 as well as a few others of varying prices. And my motto is...when in doubt, get the most expensive one...so I did...LOL!

LuxuryC240

Well, they are def. brighter than stock fog bulbs and stock headlamps...so I'm satisfied....another thing I want to do is get the PIAA extreme white 168 bulbs for the city lights...only $12.59 from I think performanceproducts.com, and then some brighter headlamps eventually, but for the moment, I'd like to get rid of the yellow hue from the city lamps. I'm also interested in just making my front blinkers white too..make the whole front white, lol...i think it is illegal, but oh well...

Can you guys post the PN's from the lenses please?
Also, from what I've read, the Sylvania SS suck, burn out quickly.
I'm blown away by the light I'm getting from these Philips.
Got them on a store on yahoo.
I raised them up. They're very white, and damn, hella bright.

I bought the passenger side lenses today from the local stealer.
She (person in parts) raped me.
35 for the one lense, and it was only 15 for the drivers side.
But at least I know it's the right part.
Farrgiing eh!!

C230 Sport Coup

Dances with Chigga speak truth.

I just didn't have any handy. Couldn't locate a floor jack.
All my **** is buried in a storage unit.
I took a risk.
But didn't keep head there long.
Eye protection was not a factor.
Ug.
Beer is however, required for proper installation.
I got my bulbs here...

Really like these 4K halogens "Crystal Visions"
damn, they are bright!
Hopefully the mods will let the link stay.
They have Vision Plus too, in USA for like 20 bucks or something.
Best prices, and they are in USA and Philips bulbs really last.

kevblah

How do these compare to the Silverstars?

rlee02135

$50???
i would've gotten PIAA LED foglights on ebay for $80 or saved up for a HID kit

kevblah

lol i love them so much, i drive with the fog lights on like 24/7

benzboi3

alright so im trying to swap out my fog lights on my 2007 c230 and cant seem to find the bulb size. the dealer says its a HB4 but they dont know the equivalent. i want to put in either HIDs in the fogs or xenon bulbs at the very least but HB4 isnt a readily available size. does anyone know if its just an H4 bulb? or a 9006 like the older models?

also i want to put stealth bulbs in the front turn signals and have had no luck finding a bulb size for those either. any ideas?

btw ive already tried the sylvania lamp replacment guide and there is no info for 07s yet...

thanks fellas

C24owner

Not sure about the '07 but the older models are 9006.

Just take a look at the bulb it will have the size on there.

rlee02135

9006

drexappeal

Merged with a bunch of threads regarding how to change the fog light bulb.

Just so we have it straight for EVERYBODY.

9006=HB4 Same bulb

2001-2007 w203 has HB4/9006 fog light bulbs.

End of story.

Rahstyles

I think its 9006 .. and i gotta question!

Where can i find red fog lights

C230k_617

no dude your fog light use H4 not 9006, H4 use the same light base as brake light, so just take out your brake light and plug it in your fog light then you get to have red fog light in the front

B189s

I'm pretty sure it's 9006 for fog lights.

Rahstyles

Wer can i get red ones

C24owner

Dude, you're asking for trouble.

WaveyKat

foggy uses 9006 and for red bulbs good luck finding them
