AZN Optics 194 LED City Lights

Hello!

AZN Optics is proud to present to the MBWorld community our line of 194 LEDs for the w203 model. These have been great hits with the 204, 211, and 209 crowd. A test set was sent out to a couple 203 owners and reports of success have been recorded so now officially bringing it to you. My testers didn't submit any pics, so first person who orders and puts a 5000K white set or an 8000K blue set in and posts a pic will receive 15% off their order (to be refunded after posting).

LED Description
These are super bright 360-degree shine LED bulbs with built-in load resistors,specially designed for European vehicles such as Mercedes, Audi, Volkswagen, Porsche or BMW, etc.

These OBC Error Free T10 Wedge LED bulbs will replace the stock 168, 194, 2825, 2821 or W5W bulbs.

Each LED bulb equips with 8 pieces High Power 1210 SMD CREE LED Chips, with built-in Load resistors. If you're not familiar with CREE, they're basically the best on the market. Most professional detailers prefer to use CREE LED chips for their lighting source for defect detection due to the high quality output.

Reviews
I have conducted a series of long tests and these LED bulbs light up perfectly and stay on error-free with no flickering. You can find reviews for these LEDs here:

Led Quantity: 8 diodes pc 3528 smd
Lamp Socket: wedge
Emitting Color: 5000k white, 8000k blue
Available Voltage(V): DC12/24V

3 sets LEDs will be $50
4 sets LEDs will be $65
PM me if you wish to purchase more than 4 sets.

I accept Paypal payment, cashier check, money order, or personal check, but for personal checks, will need to wait till clear before ship. Oh, and shipping is FREE! (to continental US and Canada). PM me if you're in some other country and I'll get shipping quote to you. I ship USPS first class to cut your costs. Tracking option is available at an additional cost. For you Canadians, just as an FYI, Canadian Customs is retarded and like to hold your shipment so expect some delays.

These are very aggressively priced as I'm enthusiast first and hate the typical MB tax. You'll find most of my competition sells these for almost double.

I come out to Cerritos bi-weekly meets usually. Will be at HIN in a couple weeks if you're going.

Check out the review threads to see pics of brightness. Not sure what factory bi-xenon temps are on 203s, but 204s are at 4300K and the 5000K matches well with them from all reports.

Yeah, sure. Just PM me before the meet to remind me to bring em for you. I'll bring 5000K and 8000K and let you decide which you prefer.

Curious if you could make a wedge bulb for 194 that has no bulbs and just resistors. So that we could 'delete' the bulb.

If that's what you're looking for, why not just wrap your bulb in black high temp electrical tape, and a top layer of silver tape (for no black egg yolk effect). That'd eliminate the city light without throwing error. Or just plug in the bulb, in the connector, but not back in the housing, then tape off the opening. Either way, there'd be very little interest I think in diode-less LEDs.

all PMs responded and all orders shipped. Remember, first to post a pic of my 5000K and 8000K gets 15% refunded to their paypal account! And to clarify some of the questions asked privately, yes, that's 2 people who will be eligible.

cuz the bulb still goes out and would need to be replaced. those of us w/ euro impact strips or color matched side markers would still have to replace the bulbs pretty often.

By chance will ya be carrying 3000k 194 LED bulbs? :P

Grats! Just issued you 15% refund to your account. Yeah, accurate light shade is tough to take with a camera.

That's 5000K claimed. Still waiting for someone to post 8000K for 15% refund!

Just got my 5Ks in the mail yesterday and installed today. I gotta say that they look great and look much better than any of those after market jdm bulbs that claim to be a "white" color.

Oh yea, and i can't forget the excellent customer service you receive from Michael!

hey just installed the ones you sent me and 2 of the 4 front facing LED's won't light in one of the bulbs...Also it may be me but it seems that that same one is the blue ones and not one of the white...the other working one looks awesome and very white (not blue like my old ones)...can you send me another white one or do I need to spend the time and money sending you back the one that doesnt work and then wait for you to send another one out too me...? Thanks.
