CONFIRMED: 2012 Side Markers

Took a chance because they looked the same...

And it worked out! Bolts right on. I tinted the lights with a light smoke vinyl sticker film.

I think it turned out nice!

So if anyone wants to change their 2012 side markers it's all the same! 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012

Good info to pass on. I have been away for two weeks. Anyone know if the grill from a 2012 fits prior models?

Did you just use a flat screw driver to pop it off? I was looking at it and didn't want to pry it off without asking first..

Where did you buy your markers?

Thanks in advance

You have to remove it from under the hood. The bulb and bulb housing are removed by simply rotating it and pulling it out. Then the actual marker snaps into its own housing. If you look, there is a little clip you can depress that will free it up from its own housing. Then it is easily removed. Tricky part is getting the housing lined back up correctly when you install the new marker.

This should be a very easy DIY. Small hands help otherwise you may get some bloody knuckles.

Ebay is probably the most popular. I believe Evosport or some other vendor sells markers that match the OEM paint color.

I got the LED ones from fishcake321 on ebay. Really awesome and good looking, much better than those crappy clear side markers.

Thanks for the link!! The smoked ones look amazing and I think will be perfect for my Obsidian Black coupe. Going to buy a set this weekend.

NP at all. You should definitely get the smoked ones then get them tinted for your black C63. It would look amazing!!!

Tell Simon (fishcake321) the guy who bought 5 sets from him referred you, and try to ask him if you can get a better deal. Or I can give you his email, so you can buy it directly from him without going thru ebay, that way, he might be able to give you a better deal.

2012 non AMG markers are different

The side markers for 2012 W204 non AMG are completely different. Anyone find clear ones for the new style or confirm that they are the same on the E-Class?

Just get out of the amber, but I like painted markers-particularly on white C63s.

Im just scared that it will look like there is too much going on by adding more led. I really like the clear plastic though what to do...
