I have a chipped side reflector and wondering if this can be changed easily? is this glued or clipped on?



Thanks

so funny you had this happen i had this same thing happen to me. Its fairly easy to replace just buy DEPO smoked or clear ones on ebay to enhance the car, as far as the install goes turn ur wheel side to side to get clearance to take out a few screws from fender liner peel it back and there is a torx screw holding it in that was a pain to remove with the tools i had you need one with a really small handle for space and than it pops out

Cheers

I have some new unused clear ones you can buy from me. I have a 2012 and they said they would fit mine, but they didn't. The 2012 is a different style. You can have them for $30 plus shipping. ikebud@hotmail.com. Email me if you want them.

Link to exact ones I bought.

Thanks for the offer Prismatic but I agree with RuskiBenz, I prefer the standard clear ones.

Thanks for the link RuskiBenz, I did find others too like these ones:

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Mercedes-Benz...-/360512856772

I will go ahead and order either the depo or the one above. Surely better than my beat up amber ones

Thanks again
