- Cable connectors are not compatible. I have cut the cable and use 2 WAGO connectors.
- A little bit loose. I used some rubber on the edges between the light and the door trim.

E class Coupe 200
I bought a set of these but from Amazon, and even though it was not listed as compatible, I was able to make an adapter and fit it, and was surprized it blinks
and makes the remaining red light (in the door) also blink at the same rythm.
When I connected it to a test 12VDC supply, it was continuously ON, but blinks only when fitted on the car.
I checked polarity, battery voltage - and couldn't find the issue. I returned them in the end and ordered another set from Alibaba, this time.
This makes me wonder if the 12V supply for the door lights has some kind of control circuit which would make non standard lights, or lights drawing too much power blink ?

Just to say that after seeing your picture (above) I ordered from Alibaba and the connectors were fine and the fitting was easy.
A little loose but not enough to worry about them falling out of place, but I will use a dab of glue to make them totally secure.
For the price, I am very happy.
