Not on your new car Were you trying to change the bulb? Try the link below. I'm not sure which part exactly you need but there's a diagram.

NP. That sounds more like it haha. Are you trying to figure out how to remove these covers on your own? I upgraded all mines to LEDs as well but I followed the video tutorial below. I'm not sure FL or Pre FL are all the same. But I guess you would be able tell that once you go through the video. BTW I used a plastic ruler. But anything similar would do.

HAHA sorry. I know how exciting it is to get a new car and you want things done asap. But these cars are built a little stronger so things will be harder to take apart. But in some cases really easy. Worse part is things are more expensive! So it's always good to ask before you do anything even though it might look easy. I actually mostly google it lol. Considering the C class has been out since 2008, if you thought of doing something to it, most likely someone else have thought of it too, and in most cases someone has already done it. So take it easy and don't rush. Google or ask around here. There's a lot of knowledgeable members here who are happy to help.

Here's a good start.

That crazy they don't sell it separately. Maybe a junk yard? Did you break something else besides the cover?

These fit our cars? It's not listed as compatible but should be the same right?

I'm not sure if that also replaces the cover though. Maybe check with the seller. But they are showing a FL c class interior and does say w204 so it's for our cars.

BTW where did you get your t10 LEDs? I got mine from eBay really cheap for a set of 20 for $34. Still going strong a year later. I replaced everything but the license plate and footwell. I did have to buy the rear dome separate. It was a 42 mm festoon type.
