Smile What diff between 2010 vs 2012 C Class?

Hi guys,

I am new here. I registered to get more info about the W2004 because I plan to buy one used soon.

1. I wanted to know what are the differences of a 2010 model vs. the 2012 models. The only noticeable things to my eye are the headlights.

2. With that, what must I replace from the 2010 to be able to make it look like 2012? Do you guys have online sources for these parts?

Any input is welcome and appreciated.

Thank you.

Oh too many differences.

How about if I change the headlights, will I need to also change the front fenders, front grille and the hood?

Maybe not the front fenders but yes to all of the above. You might spend almost the same if not more if you try to retrofit it than just buying a 2012 model depending if you will get OE parts and where to get it painted.

Thanks for the pics.

But how about in the exterior? Any big differences other then the headlights and hood?
