1995 C280 - Headlight Switch Replacement

Hey Guys,

Does anyone happen to have the diy procedure for the headlight switch replacement? I believe the lower dash panel needs to be removed. It seems like a bit of a pain to remove on the earlier 202 models.

Any insight would be appreciated!

Cheers,

-Rob

Not sure for the specific year 1995, however it should be similar to 97s and up to 2000 for the w202s.

Also, please fill-in your user CP info.

Thx! The procedure appears to be quite a bit more labor intensive than the later yrs.

I found a diy clip for removing the lower driver panel on my yr:

Cheers.

I watched this video - slightly more involved with your earlier model (having more steps to remove the d/s under dash panel)
Once that is off, you're off to the races to getting access and removal of the headlight switch.
