Blurry yeah, the camera makes it appear more bluish than it really is

Well that's it guys. No error message comes up, LEDs have built in load resistor so all set.

Where did you get the licence plate bulbs and what kind of bulbs are u using for fogs?

manawa2

I got the LEDs from HID concept. The link is below
I am using Philips Crystal Vision (4300k HBA/9006) bulbs for the foglights and got them off ebay for about $35.

Looks pretty cool. I've been trying to change my reading lights in the front and I'm having a hell of a time trying to get the lens off. Any advice? Everything else is pretty easy to get to.

car looks good!

Nice pics ...

A little word of advice, instead of making new threads just post the pics on your already existing build thread. It keeps things better organized on here.

I used a small flat head screwdriver and puked on the ends and it came off. The difficulty lies in replacing them back. It took me much longer time to put them back in. you have to find an angle and put one end first and then the other and it should click in. But don't use to much force otherwise you might break the piece that clicks in place to have it secure.
Also you have to be patient about it cause believe me it will give you a hard time.

Thanks Legacy, you should try them out only $12.99 each with $4 shipping. around $30 bucks for a pair right to your door

manawa2

Greetings mate and thanks

manawa2

Thanks for the recommendation and will do that next time

Ryan619

Thanks for the advice. I'll give it another shot.

Thanks man, the fogs seem nice and white on the picture, are they clean white in person? Or do they have that bright yellow look to them?

hcalvarez

Love your OEM command. you got lucky with that 05 with it. if your looking into just a stock look a lip would look great on it and you're good

manawa2

I was too, just take your time and you'll take it out with out breaking anything

manawa2

the fogs are not really Pure white but are more white than yellowish. so depends on your preference. They emit enough light and look good to me. Thanks

Looks like you need to stay away from auto zone. Lol i did the same thing for 2 days. I cant believe i thought it was cool driving with the rear dome light on. Gets old quick went back to stock.

manawa2

Don't drive with them on, only comes on when doors are opened and got them from HIID concept.

Sorry, looks rice.

Great pics! I'll check out HID Concepts and look into getting my LED's for my interior!

rocafel1a

dang, didn't hidconcept offer some package of all the interior LED's for the w203 for like $35 a while back? or am i getting the wrong website?

draz.amg

i know what you're talking about.. i don't think it was them, though.

nlpamg

not bad. I know how difficult taking pics of LED interior lights are, so these pics probably don't accurately represent them...

what did you use? I used the LED panels for mine.

also, if you'd like me to merge this thread with your other "evolution" thread so that you'd have your one thread showing your car's progression, I'd be pleased do to so

I digg you car bro, you dont see C230's optioned like this too often.
