Puddle Lights with the Coupe

Is it possible to get puddle lights with the Mercedes Emblem with the coupe?

Does anyone have any? What are your thoughts?

I am also looking for puddle lights for a 2018 C Cab. Has anyone found any aftermarket that fit? Local dealer said not available OEM.

Go to the AMG C43 thread, there are a list of sites that sell lights for the coupe/carb.

I went to the C43 thread, and, following this post for a C300, ordered a pair for $15.
They're not the AMG logo, but for my C300 AMG Line, I prefer the logo (see link below).
Look for "C207" -- seems they fit our car as well. Will post with details here when I get them.

The post (with pics of the C300) are here:

In case anyone is considering the options for the under-side mirror lights, even if there was an option, it wouldn't be an easy one.
I broke my driver's side mirror (the internal metal frame and nothing else, fortunately.
After I replaced it (yes, me -- but that's another post), I took the old one apart.
I don't have detailed pics of it, but you'd need to remove the rear case and the front mirror.
Both are connected with plastic clips, and I wouldn't consider it worth the risk due to the potential to break a tab.
And if you do break anything on the frame, they only sell the entire things, which is $750+tax. Ow.

I believe you can get the under mirror lights dealer installed. Not sure of the prices.

The under mirror LEDs would take some work to replace, and a quick search on eBay didn't return anything that looked like them.

I replaced the courtesy lights with projectors with the same logo on my hood.
Inexpensive ($15), with thanks to user hassanjuma for which ones to get (in his post I previously referenced).
No tools needed -- just pulled from the door hinge-side of the lights, and they came out easily.
Jacks are pretty tight, so be careful pulling them out, and a little force was needed to get them into the new sockets.
A perfect fit, and I think they look great. Some notes in-line with the pics.

The box and new projectors.

Note the nub on the barrel. This allows you to adjust the projectors. I recommend having a right-angle pick to help, as one had to be spun around 180.

Original courtesy light (on bottom of door).

Pull side closest to the door hinge, and it comes down easily.

With some ambient light in the garage.

In a dark garage.

Pretty sure the under mirror lights are these here. https://www.dmpcardes********/merced...benz-w205-w213
Can someone buy and try them? It's pretty easy to get to them after popping off the plastic mirror cover.

It's not good, have to add a resistor. I found the newest version.
