Euro Tail Lights...

who makes the best --- as in fitment, style, etc.

I ask because there are numerous suppliers and having installed them on my Ford F250 PSD truck I know the one's I bought for the truck are not a perfect fit and I want a perfect fit for my C240.


thanks in advance..

altezza's = yes.

ps: you know this forum is a pain to post messages in. I use the same forum software for a high performance boating website and I've got a quick reply box at the bottom of the screen so you don't have to hit the reply button and go to a seperate screen just to reply.

In addition this forum software is way out of date and numerous enhancements have been made. Who actually owns this place anyway? They should hire me to spruce it up. On my forum you can upload any size picture you want and it's automatically resized, I allow members to post pics of their boats in their profiles, I have a photo gallery, spell checkers, I have indicators to show when someone is on line and lots more.

These are all things I've done to make the forum easier to use and more funcational.

Your driving an MB. It already has those. Please don't cheapen it by putting those ricer lights on it. Last time I looked, those lights where continents apart.

Ouch...RICE ALERT - RICE ALERT....

Sorry, the alarm happens...I can't control it.

All kidding aside, try and keep the car looking as classy as possible by staying away from most of the things you put on Hondas (thats a good rule of thumb).

If it's made for a Honda its usually not a good idea to slap on a Benz. (There are some exceptions)

Contact www.smokedlamps.com, they do an amazing job.

Click here to see examples from other Mercedes they did:

https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...threadid=48811

As others suggested, you could also do it yourself...I guess it depends on how confident you are that it can be done right...it wasn't for me, so I sent them out.
