what are the bumper lights?
im assuming u mean the fog lights but im just asking to make sure.![Smilie](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
so basically unscrew the fog light housing from the front and then u can change the bulbs?
thanks for the info!

The fog light doesnt come out the front it goes back and needs tobe handeled from the opening on the right....im a terrible explainer of these things, but trust me once you undo those 4 screws you can easily access the foglight...

just completed my install of my new fog lights. total time was approx 25mins. first side took most of the time as I was trying to figure out the best way to do it. total of 7 screws, and unplug 1 socket, and 2 power wire connection to the bulb. removing the old lights by lifting the plastic under the car. Now i need to purchase new plastic housing around it as the picture above... finally again, no craks or broken fog lights.... I have been driving around with my broken light for over 6 months... how embrassing, and Mercedes try to get me to replace it many times on each service, but $350 per side, $700 total seems a bit high...and being in SoCal, we never see fogs or even used my fog light.... plus this is my daily beater.. So I ended up buying the parts on Ebay, for $175 pair.... labor was free by myself... with minor cuts on my hand from broken glass, but I am glad I finally took care of it... !!!! ![thumbs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

[QUOTE=blackcls63;3412990]Yes! you can change the lights simply unscrewing (3 screws) the front grill
i did an HID install through the front

How did you disconnect the wires? Do you just pull the housing straight out?

[QUOTE=Ak63;3413645]No, once you unscrew the light, it falls back inside the bumper. than reach your hand inside, you will see a power plug connection. squeeze the side than pull... it will come right out...

awesome!
thanks so much for the DIY.
whats up with using a zip tie to hold down that rubber guard? lol
i guess i better have some extra black zip ties before attempting this right?

The Zip ties just ensure the rubber protector wont fall out from the fog light unit. I didnt have long zip ties so i use 2 short ones and connected to each other, ensure it was tight and move on.... too lazy to drive to the store and back...
