thx for the inspiration cali. i do think i like them. i still have to find a fixture to attach to the backside along with a bulb but that can happen after its painted. i needed to finish this mod b4 paint. wiring will come later.

ok spent an hour at caliber motors wholesale parts dept. i needed a stock light and fitting. the part # for this is A 000 540 09 66

order 2 of these. you will have to mod your clear side markers a little to get the stock bulb holders to fit.

are those OE mercedes side indicators or are they generic?

are yours the more rounded ml/clk ones or the more tapered ones.

did you say, you have no wiring? mine came complete with all wiring.

i have the mercedes OE ones, they DO falsh in-sync with all front and rear signals.

these were used on MANY euro benz models.these are a nice mod.

wow those would of been easy to do. you should post the oem part# and what car they came off of. i think those are off a 140.

as you can see above the lenses are aftermarket and were $35 bux. they oem light plugs i used are posted above as well. my lights are from a 140. i set them up like this.
1) running lights will light them
2) courtesy lights will work depending on how you have the switch turned (left or right).
3) they will blink in sync when the driving lights are off
4) they will blink out of sync when the driving lights are on

we just finished wiring them 20 min ago. i ran the wires thru the fenders and soldered them to the existing wires that connect to the corner lights. we used welding wire to fish them thru the fenders.

on the pasenger side fender there is a huge vacumn resivoir box so we had to mod one of the connectors a little bit. i bet if you have the stock setup like in your pic they will fit perfect. i wish i had that part # before i went and did it piece by piece. oh well its done and it looks great.

if your holes are the same size you can stiil use these.

these were used on a number of euro cars, 107, 124, 126, 140, 202.
orange-amber or clear.

these will plug and play into the single filament euro turn signal connector and they flash anytime you use a turn signal.

these are not intended to light up with headlights... turn signals and emergency flashers only.

the narrow end goes toward the front.

Speaking of turn signals. Is there any way you can disable the corner lights to only turn on when you have the blinker on. I've talked to a friend about this and he said something about a Euro-Connector but I'm not to sure. Any info would be awesome!

North American corners are dual filament bulbs with one filament for corner marker and the other for the turn signal. Euro corner bulb holders hold single filament bulbs for only the turn signal. Most aftermarket clear/smoked corners come with the euro bulb holder, but they usually get thrown out in favor of the North American set up. There's a bunch of those bulb holders lying around in people's garages.
