Would these fit on a C250, 2.5L V6, 4 matic 2011 (Canadian model) . I have halogen projectors on my car,as well as LED daytime running light already. I looked on the internet, and most websites says that these headlights are compatible starting from C300 and up. I did further research and I discovered that C250s are only available in the Canadian market. If they are compatible, I might order a set of pairs.

I contacted the manufacturer via their website and I was told that It would not be compatible with C250s. Some sellers on Ebay say that it is, some not. Even if it is for W204 before the facelift, C250 models are not mentionned. Why? What would be the reasons?

C350
I just bought a pair of Spyder projector front headlights for my W204 C300 and wanted to replace the eyebrow lights to white 5000k LED ones, can you tell me which pair of LED wedge/194 lights would work error free? A lot of the LED lights i have tried are either too long or to wide to fit into the Spyder headlights.

i just installed a new pair and the left LED strip flashes instead of staying on.
do you think you know what this problem could be?
i installed everything right.

You should try contacting SPYDER or the SPYDER distributor you bought it from. You might have a defective part.

Pretty sure MB has acknowledged this. There was a standard fix for this when I worked at Benz. Not a recall as such, but a modified part if the issue occurred...

I'm on my third set, they have upgraded them and are a 100% better, I don't think I'll have any more problems.
It should have been a recall when it first occurred for safety reasons

I have a c class w204 2009 c220cdi and have had both rear tail lights replaced free of charge "twice".

yeah I'm interested in the ones the DOA has , the ones with the LED Tube to the centre of the lights , will those work for Canadian cars cause thats a Australian website, i probably won't be using xenon bulbs cause i want them to look like the stock fog lights / headlights, but I'm thinking they have to match the LED tube colours

For the people who have these Spyder headlights installed, did you get them from Ebay or somewhere else online?? I'm in the US and wondering if that is the best place?
Also have you had any dashboard error messages? Unlike the Depo Projectors there seems to be less people who have bought these and have them installed so not to sure how well they perform.
Thanks

Sorry to bump this thread. I have one of those "*******ized" C63s that the dealer ordered without bi-xenons. I started to take interest in my car again. For those that have these, has the lens held up over the years? Any "crazing" of the lens or turning foggy like an older car?
