NLPamg, look, i'm not here to give you fuel so you can start a flame war over nothing major. I just happen to have questions about things here and their regaurding different aspects of teh car i just bought. instead of going around biting people's heads of for stupid **** like punctuation and grammer. but then again, i will apologize to you all for making my posts hard to read, never was a good speller AND typer, if it was one then it was NOT the other.
and no, i did NOT confuse my CL with your C, the body codes are not what led me to your little debate. what led me was a SEARCH were i tried finding out more info on the SUBJECT, not the CAR you drive
to anyone else who feels its ok to point and laugh, well, enjoy. not much to say about that select few of you.

let me jump in here for a bit:
the license plate bulbs on my car are oem (car is still stock). they must be going out to be giving me error messages more frequently now. at least thats my guess.
phil, for a moment i thought the hoen endurance fogs were on your w203. i guess too much forum reading made me mix up the info. thanks for the pic of the M3. such a sweet car. still like my w203 though.![Smilie](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
i'll do some picture comparisons to see if i want yellow fogs or stick with white. piaa vs nokya vs hoen vs ....sylvannia. hmmmmm.....

Hoen's are still going strong and look much better than OEM.

haha eric
Thanks, they look just like the stock bulbs except with a blue tint to it so in the end it looks like a white light instead of the yellow stock.
