If you find one for a CLK430 it will fit also - I found one on ebay for $25.00.

FreddyAMG,


C36 and C43 has totally different Fog-light.


C36 has their HWA (AMG specific) part number, and to my knowledge the other US model that has similar if not the same exact part are SL R129 with AMG bumper (SL 500/600 silver arrow edition as well).

C43 on the other hand use the same folight as SLK R170 (non AMG bumper) and W210 E class prior to face lift (96-99).
The lense on C43's are replaceable, but the C36's unit are sealed unit the whole thing is one piece.



Whereever you decide to purchase C36 foglight replacement make sure you got the correct part number match your old ones.
The reason I said this because there are at least 3 different partnumber for C36 foglight (same physical dimention). But all there has different reflector setup.

Also for FYI C36 US spec and Euro spec has different setup for the bumper fog-light. I am told that some European country has the C36's bumper fog-light with the high-beam, while US spec C36 has the bumper fog-light wired as auxiliary fog-light and wire all together with rear foglight.

That's why there a few part number for the same fog-light.


Hope this helps.
Regardz,

J Irwan
