Exclamation CLS W219 facelift LED Tail lights modules

Hello,

As promised on anoter thread, i'm happy to
Show you the video of the first Plug & Play module,
that allows you to swap your old Tail lights for the
LED Tail lights from the 2009+ facelift model.

Every lights work perfectly without generating any error on
Your Instrument Cluster.

To upgrade your tail lights, you'll have to remove the plastic traverse in the trunk to Access all bolts, and bend a little bit side carpets.
Then, unscrew the 5 bolts of the Tail light, swap it with the new one, fix it with the 5 bolts, plug the module on your OEM connector (harness of the car), without cutting anything, and plug the other connector (from the module) to your new Tail light. Then you'll just have to attach the module on the traverse bar above the rear SAM, and that's it !

As you will see on the video, the sample is not completely finished, need to drill a hole In the box to run wires Safely out of it.
Everything will be ok on the finished product.

Regards,
Frenchy.

Yes, i will do a DIY video to show you how to remove the plastic housing of the trunk traverse, and how to Access to the back of the tail lights, where are 4 bolts, the last one is on the side (City lights strips), behind the central locking pump.

Hello,

What kind of problem ?
Accessibility or something else ?
I've tested the pinout of the Passenger Tail light, and it's the same as the driver Side.

Tomorrow, i will finish the installation and will take some pics and video.

Regards,
Frenchy.

Today i took all the pics during installation of both Tail lights.

I'll write a DIY with a lot of pics.

Here one pic of the prototype, but the final product will be a bit different for better integration, but of course still Plug & play.



And of course, still have "No Errors" on the IC...




Regards,
Frenchy.

Frenchy, sounds like you've had a few. Double check to make sure you're shooting the right car. and triple check it's the rear not the front lights.
