all good. I don't have much new mods to add to this thread yet anyway....LOL

the only thing I want to do is see what's involved in changing the fogs out for the W212 LED fogs/running lights. lol

Try searching around the forum. I got mine from him and I'm very satisfied with the product as well.

Frank, I don't know how you got those bulbs. I checked all over JL-Motoring's website. All I know is. They look awesome, and I want a pair.

4300k FTW!! Now you've made a real upgrade that will actually be beneficial, not some look-at-me-and-this-ridiculous-blue lighting crap.
