05 C230 Kompressor
05 C230 Kompressor fog light, oval or more square? Confused :(

I recently hit a piece of a tire in the road on a dark road at night. Shattered my passenger side fog light and grille is now missing. I was pretty upset and decided to order a replacement fog light but was not able to find the grille.

Now this may be due to my mindstate in ordering but I didn't notice the eBay fog light was soo different then the drivers side one. The drivers side is oval and small. The one I received is more rectangular. I searched online and most of the lights that come up when I search my year make and model show a square fog light, but most of the pictures of the complete car show a round fog light. Any idea whats going on? Are the lights on my car replacements? Let me know!

Here is the eBay item I ordered: http://www.ebay.com/itm/261069770368...#ht_3836wt_932

Any help would be awesome. I really would like to figure this out asap as I have 7 days to return it for a full refund.

I would take advantage of the 7 day money back guarantee. The problem with these sellers is that they do not know what they have. The description says that it fits up to '09??? Which is obviously a w204. Let me find a seller that is actually local for me who has w203's that if you need a part you can call him and he'll list it on ebay and everything is free shipping.

Try this seller http://stores.ebay.com/Qualityplus/M...=p4634.c0.m322 I can't remember when the facelift was but its worth a shot.

The amg bumpers use the oval whereas the prefacelift use the square ones. Just type in w203 amg fog and it should give you the right ones. You should go and buy the projector fogs.
