Finally a truly WHITE eyebrow LED?
Have been searching the web a long time for the whitest possible eyebrow LED, funny enough I ended up finding them here in Sweden 
The company that carries them have two different versions of this LED, 4300K or 6000K,
I rang them and asked if the 4300K really was white, and they replied "yes it is the whitest LED we have"
Ordered two pairs, and recieved them today, the package says "warm white" and when testing them on a 12V source they really seem white and not as bluish as "regular" LED.s are
Unfortunately I havnt recieved my car yet, but if I have time at work tomorrow I will test them in a 204 and shoot some pics.

Good luck... the problem wasn't that the LED wasn't white enough, it is that the glass encasing for the eyebrows have a slightly bluish tint to them...
Hope this works though!

looks like 156 Krona per unit which equals $19.40 US. So about $80 for a full set of eyebrows. Look forward to seeing how these look. Do they ship internationally?

The price is 156 SEK a pair, so its only $40 for a set.
Do not know if the company ships internationally, but drop them a e-mail: order@xenonkungen.se

email sent, see if they respond to shipping option to US and Canada.
Sounds like it won't throw errors, but want to see if it flickers or how it handles power fluctuation. The one from Belgium had some issues with this.

E200C-Fully loaded, Obsidian Black, ILS, Panoramic roof and some other bits and pieces.
I dont know if this is true or Im just being color blind.
I have a C200K 2009 model and the eyelid glass encasing is colorless and not blue.
Has anyone else with an EU 2009 model noticed that or is it just me?

2 pairs. You need 4 LEDs for your eyelids. Still don't have any response as to if they ship to US, but I doubt they do since there's a posted notice "We ship only within Europe!". Need another ctgilles type to serve as a middleman

At work, found a 204, popped the hood and installed the bulbs, no errors and no flickering.
Unfortunately this car didnt have xenons, but I think theyll match the stock xenons very well.
Very white in the middle, but still at bit bluish around the edges, but as several people have said before this is from the reflector, so I dont think it gets much beter than this.

Really?, they look very white and bright, must be the picture thats fooling me..
Then again, when I took out the stock bulb from the 2009 204 in the pics above, they were Philips Bluevision, the glass bulb was blue, but they still looked yellow when turned on.

OK, I just heard back from them, they will ship to US if we can get 10 sets. This means we need 5 cars if interested. I'll probably order a set, so just need 4 more people. Anyone else interested?

I think what they'll do is ship them all to me and I'll have to redistribute out to the interested parties, so canada isn't an issue. Plus, even if they do ship individually, no big deal shipping to US or canada I don't believe. Shot them an email to clarify though.
