FS: W210/E class '00+ taillights
-make me an offer,
i only have the outer trunk taillights in clear w/ red. they are o.e.m. no cracks or scratches. i installed them on my '97 but they seem to not be compatible. i check w/ a local shop, and they told me some vin #'s for pre '00 210's will not work w/ newer style lights. if you can get it to work on your car thats great. cant guarantee it though. bulbs included. you would still need the inner trunk lights for both sides. (dealership $50 ea.)

c220--sold now--W210
You can make those fit. You just have to shave the lights in a few places and you're all good. Do a seach for W210 lights and you'll find a string as to what to do. the newer lights look way better than the pre 00 ones.

I have shaved about 10 sets of these light and they fit fine. All 96-99 models that I have run across need the lights to be shaved, just the inner ones. Shave them and put them on, they'll look great!

I've never heard or seen of this. Well, good luck on a new set I guess...
