Try a search before you get all bent out of shape. There's probably twenty different threads on the topic.

First of all, there shouldnt be anything blocking you on the right side to prevent you from installing the right corner light. Its the same thing as the left, should easily come out and pop right back in. I had no problem with mine, perhaps if you had pictures we can better assist you. good luck.

The 300E and E320 are virtually the same car, Mercedes underwent a naming change in 1994. The 300E became the E320 (along with a 0.2L displacement increase).

i'm a 300e idiot who knows WTF i'm talking about...enough to know all w124's are the same

common courtesy goes a long way here, canuck.

please and thank you are the building blocks to courtesy and gratitude is the doorway to everything.

since your panties are all knotted up, i'll help you

can you access the release tab ok?

release the tab and push from the inside and pull from the outside on indicator.
push/pull firmly and evenly.

you should be there.

sometimes it's easier to unscrew bulb socket first.

make sure they click/snap into place and test the security of it.

don't be afraid to firmly push it in place, AFTER it is all lined up.

did you buy real OE bosch or hella ones or some cheap pos?

if you bought cheap ones they may not fit real well and are known to come loose and pop out.


let us know when they're in and what kind you got.

my instructions will only work on bosch or hella ones.

the canuck comment was rather stupid, and guess what? u still dont know what ur talking about, i guess a picture is needed to u all feel dumb, i know about the release tab, like i said, the left side is accessable. but if u can all listen, the right side is blicked by something attached to the air filter or some****. There is no way in hell i can fit my hand in there and around this big black box to get at the release tab. For the record, i know what im doing so dont look at this a think im stupid cause im not, there is a big black box in the Fing way, do any of u understand that? obviously all W124's arent the same ebennz because u dont have the same problem as me. So that whole statement is blown out of the water. Like i said before , anyone with a E320 who knows what im talking about please reply, all these 300E guys have no clue.

You're such a ****en dumbass. You expect to get help while you be a ****en *****? I don't think so, take your *****ing *** self elsewhere and find help somewhere else. I'm tired of reading your stupid post and comments.

the black box piece should be removable it is probably held in with clips... they would have to make it removable to get to the headlight bulbs.

Then removal of the corner should be a snap.

The 3.2l e320 has the airbox and I think an air duct behind the headlight so that would be the difference over a 3.0 m104 or m103 engine. remove it and you should be able to get at the corner light.

I could understand why you were getting mad, but you were getting out of control. Ashman does know his stuff and indeed his car is nice. So come to your neighborhood and talk that kind of crap? Sure, where do you live and are you seriously 13 years old? Once again my friend, you are jumping to conclusions. Nope, dad didnt buy me the car nor anything else that I own. As for me, I'm 18 years old and I'm a independent 3D designer. So you dont worry, I have the cash to spoil myself. LOL...you say we're haters but in reality you're the one talking s-h-i-t. Real baller? Oh please, give me a break.

plain and simple, I'll explain it so everyone can understand.

1. If you are asking for help, don't get impatient, you can't expect people to respond to a thread right away with an answer.

2. The answer you get may not be the right answer, but at least people are trying to help, and you shouldn't attack people for at least trying. Common courtesy. they took the time to at least give you help, and if they are wrong in their answer, just try to be nice and say it didn;t work any other suggestions?

3. We all own a benz thats why we are here. That being said, we can all show maturity and have a little class.

4. Go over to any other forum, honda ones, BMW ones, ETC Etc. and look at the attitudes of most people on them, most are haters who talk out of their ***. People who think they are the best, and who hate on everyone who doesn;t agree witht hem.

5. I've read the whole thread, and while I do think you and others were out of line, I did my best to simply post an answer that may help.

6. Posting your address on a public website is just plain stupid, I'd edit that post if it is your real address.

7. Personal attacks are petty, and it doesn;t help when fuel is thrown on the fire. Whether or not Daddy bought anybody anything, does not mean anything. people should be so lucky to have parents who can afford to buy them things, and hating on them is just stupid. They are insignificant in your life, so why get all worked up over it.

As you can see, a little patience is all that is needed, and an open view of things also helps.

If you managed to get the corner on, post up a pic, maybe even an apology and make nice, you will want people to help you in the future, so why make enemies, we should all be friends here, friends with a love for our beloved W124 cars and a love for modding them if we choose. And this goes for everyone who was making attacks and bickering back and forth. we are all mature enough to handle things in a mature way.

I'm 30 in less than 2 weeks, it just isn't worth it to get all worked up over petty crap. there are more important things in life.

Ashman
