Hi Michael,
I just wanted to add a note here commending your excellent customer service.
To all, I somehow accidentally provided Michael with an old shipping address via Google Checkout which was storing my information. The current resident at my old address was kind enough to return the shipment to Michael, who then offered to ship my plate LEDs to me at no extra charge. There are some good people left in the world!
I'm a happy owner of the city lights and plate festoons, and I am of the opinion that the quality cannot be exceeded, even at much steeper price points.
So, in return for your good will Michael, I'm willing to be the guinea pig for the complete interior facelift as described below. If you'll let me know what amount to send, I'll send it your way.
Again, excellent product and even better service, I highly recommend AZN optics to anyone looking to update to LED lighting. In my opinion, if you pick the right color temperatures, switching to LED is one of the most subtle yet impressive mods you can make to your W203, or any other model for that matter.
Thanks,
Nick

Either way, you're covered by warranty, so just send pics of both sides of the dead LED to aznoptics@gmail.com and include your username, name, address, and transaction number if you still have it so I can look up your order information and we'll get a replacement shot to you.

Depends. Not all HID kits are the same. HIDs are a color temp range, not precise kelvin rating. So you could have a kit that's actually 5500K-6000K, 5750K-6250K, and one that's 6000K-6500K, but all are advertised as 6000K. High quality kits will narrow that bad though to get it closer to true rating, but it'll still be a range regardless.
Good rule of thumb is if you see any slight hint of blue, go with 8000K as it's easier to match shades of blue as 5000K is pure white.
