Really like the black wood over the silver plastic trim.
Digital HVAC looks sweet!

FYI 2005+ cars have genuine aluminum trim

Yes, i know.
FYI, its not real genuine aluminum.

Wow Man... This LoOks Exceptional... The Lights For The LiCense Plate LoOk Great.

must you type like a child each time you post?

last time I checked, tYpInG lYkE dIs WaS played out and only for fourth graders.

you've been called out on this many times already, yet you still continue to type like that thinking that you're cool or are getting some sort of cred for it.

you're the only one that types like that, maybe this is your first time using a computer, but respectable individuals don't type like that.

on the facelifted cars, it's absolutely real genuine aluminum trim.

yup, otherwise it wouldn't dent so easily!

Mine dosen't dent anymore, now that I put bubble wrap over it.

HAHAHA....ya the best buy dumb *** dented mine when pulling it to install ipod integration...what an ***! i didnt care cuz it was small and matched the crappy look of the trim as it was, so i just upgraded, lol!

I guess I must be lucky, my aluminum trim is all perfect on the center console. I just have a 1/2" scratch on the one on the door panel.

Enough to do a Disneyland Light Show Parade?

Didnt know that. I swear i read it somewhere here someone said it was 'aluminum' colored trim that felt cheap and scratched easily [on the facelift models].

good to know.

I was wondering if I was the only one getting a headache from reading that nonsense. It removes all credibility from the user. They could give the best advice ever and presented in that style it would just get overlooked. Seriously need to grow up.

He always does it. I think he spends more time typing like that than actually trying to come up with an answer. loool

close!

man, I was at California Adventure watching that parade a few months ago and that's pretty much all I could think off...

I'm thinking it's a SHE. Girls tend to do that about 8 or 9 years of age and it's expected. What's not expected is that 8 to 9 year old girls would be on the W203 forum. I know the cars are cheap, but not lunch money cheap!

yup.

well, I did do some research into him. looks like he's a sophomore in high school, so that would explain some of it. I bet he doesn't even have his license yet...

he's just making a futile attempt to be cool on the internet.

it dosen't feel cheap but it does scratch very easily.

ya with the amount i have spent on LED's for the city lights and interior I ended up replacing all my lights with LED's lol...i moved the ones that didnt work in the city to the courtesy and some of the license plate to the interior! now i just have to figure how to make the glove box light work again (assuming i shorted it) and the vanity mirror lights!

iS iT a Straigtforward install For The Rear LiCense Plate Lights?

aluminum trims in the W203 has always been real aluminum.

yes

I didn't want to speak to the pre-facelift cars frank. All I knew was that the newer cars absolutely, positively had real aluminum.

Thanks for posting this up. I'm actually gonna try them out now, since you said you've had your city lights in for about a month without any issues.

I bet these lighting guys saw all the money that Eric and Phil were dumping into LED mods that the finally decided to take the time to make something that will really work!...LOL.

Anyhow, it's a limited lifetime warranty, so as long as the bulbs show no physical damage or tampering, if they go bad, the seller can be contacted to replace with new ones for $5 (which includes shipping). Not a bad deal IMO. I just hope that if I have to replace them, it won't be for a LONG time.

thanks for sharing the LED info. for the city lights, the seller has options for blue or white. your pictures show the LED looking more blue than your philips 6000k. did you opt for the blue led or did the picture just come out that way with the "white" led looking slightly blue-er than your bix?
