Tail light assembly - where to buy?
I am going to buy new tail light assembly for my 98 E320. Where can I get new ones for a good price? Does the new assembly come with new sockets and bulbs? Is VLO the maker of original MB part or is it aftermarket brand?
I keep getting the Lamp Failure message. I've changed 2 bulbs and sockets for the lights that don't lite up but the message still shows up. My dealer sells $230 for a pair. I want new parts as it's prone to failure.
TIA!
