Sweet looking ride. Where did you get the LEDs? Does it comes with the car or is it aftermarket?

the OEM LED strip is a Retrofit! my car originally come with round fog lamps. I bought it at Local MB parts supplier using the part no. i have found on here:naughty:

adinata 01-28-2011 09:06 AM

I also bought OEM LED strip for C-Class and did the retrofit same as you; however, the LED too bright at night time.

The original Lighting package comes with lighting module that control the brightness of the LED at night (when low beam/Xenon ON).

Are you experiencing the same problem?

Thanks

Royce118 01-28-2011 10:53 AM

Can you please PM me details of the retrofit. Very interested in it..

lithium332 01-28-2011 11:25 AM

Hey I'm from hk too! Sweet ride, it's basically the same car that I have with similar options. Can you tell me about the Brabus tune? How much was it, does it make a huge difference and lastly does it void your warranty? Thanks a lot.

Yes, thats why I have a found a special control module to control the light pattern of the led, as u can see from the above pics, led DRL brightness can be adjusted. At low beam it is set for 50% brightness, when "fog light" is switch on , full brightness (100%) will be set.

The BRabus tune is great. The kit includes a tuning box made by Brabus, and a Brabus intercooler. It is not cheap , which is over 20k , but u buy what u have paid for. It has 240hp and 37.7kgm@2000rpm . It is especially noticeable at in gear acceleration, Where the difference is huge. In terms of warranty, risk is there, but u can always remove the tuning at anytime.

adinata 01-28-2011 06:54 PM

Where did u get the control module? is it Mercedes OEM? How much is it?

Thanks a lot

joshg1001 01-28-2011 08:20 PM

!!! this might be what we were waiting for. As long as the cost isnt too much, Im so game to get this retrofitted. I too am interested on more info please :)

As a side note in the previous thread, there is the retrofit for the hockey styled LEDs like on the E class. I saw a 2011 E class today and they no longer have the hockey stick style, its one strip like the C and S

patrickng 01-29-2011 03:23 AM

wow, nicely done, it must be super cool to roar around in the city at nite! which reservoir is it? 萬宜水庫?

MrMeth90 01-29-2011 01:54 PM

You can switch your led brightness as you please?
Would this be available with cars that came with LED stock?

yes you are right, it is exactly what i am looking for. i reckon it is expensive but the build quality of the wiring harness is top notch.

I'm pretty sure Brabus picks up the warranty, maybe they don't do it in HK? I was looking at Brabus tunes in Germany, and they offered to warranty my engine.. I think it was for 4 years, up to 50,000 miles.

yes you are right. Brabus do offer warranty in europe and USA. but the HK distributor said it is not offerd in HK...

hellasmania219 01-30-2011 02:09 PM

wow, very thorough retrofit.
Any details you can share?

CGi = the new Turbocharged Engine. Next year all C model will come with Turbocharged instead of the "Kompressor" (Supercharged)
