One of my hoen blubs when out so i needed new blubs and i gave these a try and they Work great on my car no error no Flickering yaya!

I installed the LED S-class tail lights, had to rewire them to function as a 05+ light should, and now my left license plate light comes on for 5 sec, turns off for 5 sec and so on . Anyone run into this when they installed the S-class lights? ideas? I checked my wiring and tried a new bulb, other than that any suggestions before I go back to stock and sell the S-class LEDs?


Additionally, anyone know the part# of the license plate screws? I stripped the hell out of them.

how did you "rewire" it, i rewired mine so that all the bottom row comes on and i have no problems.

alboogiee

That's exactly how I did mine.

On the drivers light, I used all wires and left no open pins, rear fog doesn't work, no big deal on that. On the passenger side, I left one wire not connect, as pin 6(?) is not used.

AzCamel

i did not mess with the pin, i just cut the powe wire to the rear fogs, taped the wire for the regular lights and used that to power that bulb. it look good but the rear fog light bulb is way way bright. i might take it off.

That's what I did, but I ran that wire for the regular lights to the fog also...that may be the culprit , looks like I have a Saturday project...again

Did u use any resistor for those interior LED or just plug n play?? and what kind of LED u using?

Thanks,

Andy

yea thats what im saying some guys using 5w 25 ohm then the other guys using 5w 100 ohm but they are both work so why? lolz

I m using 10 w 100 ohm ceramic resistor for the licence plate.







cheers

May I ask what kind of LED that u are using ?? 6 LED or 9 LED ? 36mm or 39mm? Do you have your city light in LED too ?

Thanks,

Andy

Hi, will post pic of the LED later on, i m using 6 LED SMD type and not festoon type. Btw wat do u mean by city light?

M-bENZ

the little bulb next to your highbeam...someone called that Parking light too.

Andy

blackmercs

Oh i see, over our end we called it parking light. I m on stock. Did you change yrs to LED?

M-bENZ

I want to but right now I changed it to Xenon its one of those polarg and its way better than stock . Im thinking to change to LED soon just have to do a little research because the bulb will be flickering due to the amps and voltage. I already bought some resistors and kinda waiting on the LED right now plus its frigging rain for the like whole week cant do anything righ now. Please some pics of your LED and do you have any pics that showing the whole car in the back I just wana see how bright the led in the nite . I mean in the distance.

Andy

MUahahahahah, blame it on my camera phone!!!!

blackmercs

How abt this one, better?

IntoTheBlue

Hey guys, i've searched for this before...i'm getting a 2005 halogen headlight c230...what bulb size are the front turn signals? 1156? i don't have the car with me yet to just check the bulb size myself.

sorry to hijack the thread

M-bENZ

wth ? how did u fit that LED into the housing ? Did u use that for your license Plate ? really? What do you drive ?

Andy

M-bENZ

I finally got it installed,

I m driving the new CLC coupe, my stock bulb is festoon type. As for my housing is huge, no issue at all.

Btw, nice rear LED light mod u have there.

M-bENZ

CLC coupe ? say what ? lolz and thanks,

about a year ago i started looking for license plate l.e.d.'s everywhere.. the only place i found them was on ebay.. i didnt want to play with wires so i turned to l.e.d.'s with built in resistors, after two faulty l.e.d.'s with built in resistors didnt work, i gave up.. months later a found a new seller with the same deal, so i bought them.. they worked perfect, no fault on the menu screen and no cutting and crimping.. these where the real deal with built in resistors.. till this date i still have them and havnt had any problems.. if i find the the seller again ill post his page.. i just think its pretty cool that this guy actually did it while the others keep failing..

Let us know for real man......it might put an end to this thread..
