lol. I am just frustrated. First it was the Nav instal and the dealers inability to code the car properly. Second, the chrome door trim, now (I brought this one on myself) the tails. Just wish there was away to get rid of the error message.

Hi guys,
Anyone know which LED tail lights are better? Fit wise, quality-wise, and any clarity on the light patterns for signaling, parking and braking?
They seem to just show pics with just the parking lights on?

2009 C350-Sold. Now, M3 Vert
The price listed is for the PAIR. And I can personally vouch for the 2nd link ones. I've had them on for the better part of a year. Awesome quality, great output..and I didn't have any errors pop up.

which ones did you get? Do you have the factory LED tails? I ask because i heard that If you dont have the factory LED tails, that you may need some relays so that you dont get the error message.

My car didn't come with P2 so I went into mine without having the factory LED's. As I said, I didn't have any errors, and didn't require any special relay.

I think these are better than the OEM LEDs I have seen in pictures. I'm waiting to see them in person before I make a decision though. I kinda like the OEM lights with the whole middle portion clear for the red led blinker.

I am still unsure if the factory led tails on the 2012 will differ in the united states. Some pictures show the change (an they look euro spec) and others don't. But it could just be the non led vs led tails that I am seeing. No real way for me to tell or for us to know until they get on the dealer lots. But they do look very nice.
