I see now. it's just the exterior parts you get.
You can only get these if you already have the new mirrors.

They will fit the C63 for sure. These Taiwanese manufacutrers have no idea what they're selling

I wonder where the LED entry light will connect to? Since there none from the factory. Maybe to the dome light

A lot of people on the W204 forum are wiring it to their dome light. The facelifted 2012's come with the mirror puddle lights, so it would be plug and play for the newer model W204s.

I'd send a message to the seller. I think they are located in Vancouver, can any Vancouverites drop by this guys shop and check it out? I'd assume that they should work with the folding mirrors, looks like it just replaces the outer shell...

Reviving an old thread.

Bought these


http://www.ebay.com/itm/141136899885

My car is dark gray, and I will see how they look/function. I would buy the carbon fiber ones, but they are $300, and these are $138, so I figure I can pay to paint these if I don't like the black on dark gray, and still be cheaper than carbon.

It appears the wiring basically takes the place of the turn signal bulb/plugs into our old style mirrors, and the rest just replaces the old cover. In genious idea, let's just hope the execution was done well enough.

I'll post on my findings.

Says right on their auction that its not meant for the C63.

Not sure why, since the C63 has the same side view mirrors as the regular W204's.

I can't vouch for these one specifically, but I have bought a similar set from ebay as well and the quality was pretty decent to begin with.

However, after about a year or so, the clear coat began to deteriorate and flake off. Just be wary of where you buy your aftermarket parts from.
