Has anyone done this before? I looked in the manual and there's no instructions. Anyone know where I can buy a repair manual for the CLS63?

a car that gets very poor gas mileage.
Remove the door panel to access the sideview mirror.
You can completely remove it from the car and dismantle it to get to the bulb.

I heard that it can only be accessed by the dealer. Not sure if it's true but if you do find out let us know.

No that's not true...you just have to get that mirror cover off and you can do it yourself. How you get that mirror cover off is the problem here lol

Such a bummer! The LED lighting would look soooo nice and really update the car.
