C320 Side Mirror Bulbs

I own a 2001 C320 and I noticed that on the drivers side mirror I have the innermost and outermost bulbs out. I have looked online and while I have figured out how to remove the housing (seems to be a clip inside when you push the mirror in) I can't seem to find what the bulb sizes are.

Anyone have any info on this?

You need the entire lens. You cannot replace the bulbs.

You probably can open the bulb housing, and then seal it back. Even install LED's there instead of bulbs. But it would be easier just to source the complete lens.

The bulbs are 6V - some weird one you can't just buy in the store. They're strung in sets of 2 per circuit iirc, which is why 2 of them went out.

I can mail you a free light assembly if you want (if you pay for posting) off my car, but you're probably better off just getting a set of 2005+ W203 LED ones, or modifying a set of W211 ones, which look WAY better imo.

Good to know! They would go great with the newer style headlights I am looking to buy. It's either that or those replica newer style LED ones on eBay.
