What color eyebrows do stock 2011s have?

Do the 2011 c300s from the factory have white led eyebrows or are they yellow like the 2008s?

I want to order some AZN leds but want them to be as close to 2011 stock as possible, I am guessing white?

And would anyone be able to tell me if yellow AZN LED turn signals ever kit the market?

thanks

the eyelids are the same as all years, the factory bulbs are actually blue. The LEDs look nothing like the stock bulbs, are u trying to match them to ur headlights or something?

My 08's factory bulbs are yellow, so did they change them maybe for 10 or 11? Yours are blue?

If you actually pull them out and look at them, the bulb is blue. That is probably what jimmy is referring too

The light they emit and how it comes through the ridged eyelid housing may appear yellow, but then the new ones should look yellow too because they are the same bulb.

^ exactly, the bulb is blue its the housing that makes them yellowish. A blue bulb actually tries to make the light more white, go figure. What are u trying to match to or accomplish? theres alot of light info if you give us some info we can steer u in the right direction

Id like to match the color of the lights you see on new bmw's, that bright cool white. I was thinking 8000k eyelids and lowbeam HID's. Is 8000k pretty much the same as the new BMW's?

(Sorry to threadjack)

I prefer the halogen angel eyes over the LED ones... they look more menacing.

They definitely have a cooler looking contrast to the Xenons.

8000k will be too blue. I have AZN's 5k and they are slightly blue, but still white. U do know they have an angel eye kit for the w204, search on ebay for it. U will never perfectly match between lights, unless u replace hi and lo w the same kit and expiriment with polargs, AZN's, or others and see what comes thru. The reflector on the eyebrow is the problem, not the bulb
