I want to do that to my c-class. My FUTURE c-class. You see, I'm on the verge of getting one because now i have a lexus and i like luxury cars a lot because of the lexus. I just have to make sure I can get purple dome lights, but then it's mine!
I will make sure the ladies say 'wow' in conjuntion with seeing my interior purple radiant LEDs, they will also now see the purple DRL LEDs in the beed style along the purple headlight. Yep, purple is the way to go. It makes the girls (YEAAA!) say wow and compement my lexus. That's how i know I like purple!
Soon as I get my c-class (this week or possible next), I am going to deck it out with purple... even YOUR IDEA!!!!!!! KEEP IT UP. You seem like you're as cool as the people at superbrightLEDs.com who make purple dome lights (they're friendly too)! They're really really cool, now YOU make purple lights too. That's how I know you're cool.

I think the new E Class has similarly designed foglights. As far as the eyebrows go, I like it, but I am not sure I like adding Audi styling to a Benz. Especially a class-leading Benz.

If I'm not wrong, the lights are white when viewed in person. It the camera effect that made it look purple. Go, nrgy. Please quickly post how did you do it soon. The hole of the bulb is quite small. hmm..

I've always loved the Audi style LEDs, and more and more high end cars/exotics are starting to follow trend. (ie. Porsche Turbo, Ferrari F430, Lambo LP560, etc), so I don't see this as a complete rip off of the Audi design. So I decided to embark on a little project this weekend and quickly created a crude mock up of DRL LEDs for the W204 C-class. I only did one headlight, but you can get a general idea of what my idea looks like, and no it's not a Pshop. I tried my best to take pictures that represent the actual color of the LEDs, which IMO is very difficult to do but I think I pulled it off. But as is the case with most things, looks even better in person.
It's getting late as I just managed to take some decent pics so I won't go into much detail right now, but basically I think something like this could easily be manufactured for the masses and the install very simple (ie. 10 min), AND look oem.
Anyhow, let me know what you guys think, good or bad.

And here is the product they used.

Cheap for $20 a strip.....anyone care to try it out?
I might do this on my Boxster in the fog lights.
