https://mbworld.org/forums/clk-class-w208/115588-xenons-ba9-5led-vs-halogen.html

The BA9 bulbs from autolumination.com was kinda blue compared to the xenons...so beware if you're gonna order that specific bulb.

I know im on the wrong forum but the CL W215 is mostly dead ... maybe CL owners are too busy to talk or just too CLassy ...

Ok, I just popped the bulbs from the link I posted into my car and they look great imho. I do get the bulb error in the command system, but I just ignore it. Not that big a deal to me. The link I posted is to the correct part number for those that are wanting the H6w bulb. All together I think it cost about $20 or 12 pounds UK. Shipping from the UK to CA took about 5 days. Not too shabby!

Cheers,

Dominik

does anyone have a DIY for how to wire the resistor to these bulbs so that they get the correct load without the error message?
