Seems like it's SR Auto House's project from the pic and the link. Try shooting them an email?

Hi All,

I found the exact DRl's as in the pick from seller in the UK and yes they fit correctly in CLS55 front bumper where the Fogs go. Cost £27 UK pounds.

Here is the link to Ebay:

Thanks. Azam

Do you know if these are plug and play to the existing fog light connections?

They have been delivered today. I will be taking them to auto electrician over the weekend to fix them. If we can use the existing fog light connection that will be excellent.

Lets see. I will keep you all updated.

Any update or pics of your LED light install? Curious how they turned out.

I figured out a better solution. You'll have the super-bright LED DRLs....AND.....be able to retain your stock fog lights. I just finished installing a set and they look amazing; should have come stock.

.......the last two. These DRLs are high quality German-Spec pieces. They come with a ballast module and all of the required hardware to mount to the vehicle. Yes, they are wicked bright. My house faces to the west, so, I was able to get some good full daylight shots (look at the shadows) without moving the car out of the garage (lazy). Yes, they do have the option of auto-dimming when you activate the park/headlights. I tried to capture that in the pictures, but the camera picked up the auto-dim function as "flicker" due to the lower wattage and hertz (I guess). You still retain full function of the stock fog lights (no error messages). The DRLs almost blend into the fascia when not illuminated. Overall, a good mod. I installed them myself. Total work time.......3 hours (didn't want to break anything). If you know your way around the car, it'll probably take less time. I would've taken pics during the mod, but I forgot. I suppose I could take it down and "reconstruct" the build as a tutorial.

Launchstation, can I ask what wire and where did you use to splice into this kit? I believe I have the same Philips lights and don't won't to chase clipping into the wrong wires. Thank you for your time. Have a good day.
