W204 C-class LED tail lamp retrofit module

I have access to this module which makes the retrofit much painless.
This is for OLD W204 C-Class with NON LED tail to LED tail retrofit.



Left = before module, not light up properly /// Right = with module, zero programming, 100% factory light

Here's what it looks like


PRICE IS NOT SET YET. but it will be between approx $250 USD.

If there's enough interest I can put together a group buy.


Moderator, if needed I can sign up for a vendor account.

Finally, there is some one who is making this. Is this needed for both side or just one? Could you explain how it works? Thanks

There is one for each side. installation involves 7 wires to be cut and spliced, but it's easily reversible. The details of how it works was not disclosed by the company. It retains the factory bulb out warning when something does fail, and there's no delay in the light output.

Yes. This is for older W204 with NON LED tails to retro fit.

It will be around $200-$250 price range, do you guys think it's reasonable?

if so, i will work out the details and start bringing them in, if there's enough interest.

I think there's only 1 version. The set in the following pic was ordered from euro and i don't see any difference.

Just the parts? or Parts & Labor?

Correct me if I'm wrong - I don't need this module if I already have the LED tails?
I thought this will cancel the rear foglight error.

Nice idea, but the wire nuts are a no no.. it looks horrible, and they will come loose and cause a short. They were never designed to be used in locations where there is movement.

Change that out to heat shrink connectors, or use a crimp on proper connectors. If you insist on using wire nuts, then atleast use electrical take to hold them to the wires, similar to this image I randomly found on the internet

price is for module only. labor will be extra if you wish to bring the car in to have it installed. it takes about 15 mins so labor cost will be reasonable.
