Recommendations Needed
I recently got my 2010 C350 4matic and I would like to purchase some exterior LEDS (clear side markers, eyelids, liscense plate, and HIDs).
Please recommend me some good websites where I can buy some reliable LEDS that would flicker or show up as errors.
BTW, I am a girl so I am not very knowledgeable about these stuff =)

check the DIY threads first in the sticky, should cover most of ur questions, basically
eyelids need 4 bulbs, u can choose from prolarg m4 bulbs, or go for error free leds

So far to ur knowledge, there exists no error-free LED for the 194 bulb type.
What most of us, including me have done, is ordered Polarg M4 194/168 bulb type off E-Bay. They look great. (2 in each eyelid = 4 total, +2 for license plate = 6 for outside. I wouldn't recommend putting them in the sidemarker.
If you order the celar sidemarker from E-Bay it comes with a stealth yellow/orange bulb which means it is painted silver so that the clear side marker does not have a orange/yellow hue in it during the day, but at night it has the law required orange/yellow output. Of course, you can use polarg m4 to get the blue/white look, but you *potentially* could get a ticket.
For HID's, everyone recommends the DDM kit for around $85 shipped, make sure you get the error cancelers otherwise your car will display a light out error. If you don't want to spend the money, I use 8500k GP thunders, that aren't as bright as HID, but look just like it and get the job down for a lot less money ($15 and you can install yourself saving on installation cost)
