Please search this forum as these have been posted with pics. In essence you release the spring clip and have at it. From your describition it sounds like you bought the W211 version which includes the puddle light bulb. This will require additional modifications to your existing setup.

Thanks amdeutsch, I've tried search the forum but no luck, the clear blinkers i got are not from W211, it is W203 version the parts printed with w203 820 13/14 21.

Hate to tell you this but those are from an E-class even so they carry the 203 part number ( I think its due to the mirror housing curvature). Your dealer either gave you the incorrect ones or you ask for them by part number directly. Don't know which in this case. If you decide to use this you will have to mod them since the connectors will not match up, cut and splice required. Here is a search hint for you.: clip (w203 forum). There are others.
I'm too lazy and it is still way to early.

That all depends on the look you're going for. Some members use the ones you have and mod them and others buy the new MY05 ones (plug and play) that come on the C-class. Its your choice.

No I don't. I think a member here has posted them a while back. I might be wrong as I have slept since then.
But if you can't find them the dealer should be able to get them for you easily with a VIN of an MY05 of his lot.

The ones you have, I've also seen with the A 211 xxx xx xx part number configuration, so not sure why yours begin with A 203. Maybe an older part
that also fit both C and E Class mirror housings. ???

you can still fit the W211 indicators to fit. the housings are the same. you have to cut the bulb and 4 prong connector off and replace it with a 2 prong connector, you can find these in an old computer, radio shack, etc.
i have the 211 indicator on my car and IMHO i think they look better than the 2005 W203 indicators.
