2012 C63 AMG Coupé
AZNOptics.com Review

Hey everyone just thought I would post a thread on my recent purchase from AZNOptics.com ... Anyways, I bought some rear LED's from Michael Tao at AZNOptics.com a couple weeks ago for my 2012 C63 AMG Coupé. I replaced my reverse lights with their 1157 white LEDs (1 per side) as well as the brake lights with their 1157 red LED's (2 per side). The reverse lights look AMAZING with a nice white color temp (guessing 5k) and are way brighter than the factory halogens. My brake lights looked great as well although I started receiving a few errors messages on my instrument cluster ... KEEP READING... So I quickly contacted Michael about the problem and he informed me they recently updated their RED 1157 Bulbs to a new style and have not done much testing with them on the new 2012 coupe as it is so new. So at that point we started to do some tests via process of elimination. We were able to solve the problem by replacing them with the the "paneled" style LEDs. Everything is working correctly now and error free! If anyone has been considering switching to LED's I would HIGHLY recommend going to Michael from AZNOptics.com. Michael was extremely helpful and intent on fixing the the problem I was having. Bottom line, AZNOptics.com will ALWAYS have my business in the future and customer service was beyond exceptional, A+!!! Big thanks Michael!!

To add to the review, I just bought some lights from Michael and he was very helpful in giving me all the info I needed. Not only that, I received my order within 2 days of placing it! I havent installed my lights yet but I am sure they will look amazing once I do, thanks again for great service!

If you find eyebrow LEDs that don't explode, let us know. I installed ones from AZNOptics and after a few days, maybe a week they were dead with components literally blowing off the lamps. Its not necessarily the LED's fault, this seems to happen to all of the 194 bulbs in the eyebrows while those installed in other areas continue to work fine. I've tried putting them in the eyebrows repeatedly and they just won't survive. Tried this on both of my cars, its not something wrong with one of the cars best I can tell.

I have Micheal's (AZN) 8000k leds in the eyebrows since two years. Only one burnt down so I replaced it with a spare one. No issues since then.
