License plate LED housing DIY

So would these led modules work for a 2005 CLK 320? W209?
It says for w203 but looking at the pictures it does look like mine as well? Not the squarish ones but the ones that have a slight curve on the top while the bottom is flat.
EDIT:
My lenses on the stock license plate are like dark brown... so I could order new lenses for $14 each or just buy the LED modules above... I bought them and will report back.. hopefully they are bright and clean looking. I took my entire housing out and they look identical just as the OP mentioned, so HOPEFULLY going to work for the w209...
Thanks,

Just got these *came back from trip)
And they are a little different than the stock housing.. however, I am just going to use a small bead of RTV silicone and install them. You won't notice it and I just to make sure they don't come loose (they won't), these have a single side clip rather than both sides like the oem housing light. These however produce a nice pure white color that is bright and does NOT throw and errors on the dash!
I like them!
Will post pictures tomorrow or so.
