These are the part #s for the LED fogs off an E63 (pictured below). They are $186.30 each through parts.com. If anybody needs the part #s for the other fogs, let me know.

Okay, those are nice! Even though I'm a Canadian, I still never liked the 'hockey stick style'. They took the styling a little too far.

I think u should buy a mesh grill but without the fog lights holes ... and then cut them to insert these LEDs...

can it be done ??

... then how would you 'divert' the light to just lighting up the LED DRLs and not the OEM ones. Hmm

if the installation is done... i'm ok with using the LEDs as fog lights

btw.. i remember seeing pictures of someone that switched the fogs on his E320 to the LED that we're talkin about... just don't remember where

That looks pretty good. I would like to know how he went about the grilles. They look like a perfect fit.

Question, can't you just buy a spare center grille and use that to make your outer ones?
