Someone once mentioned they got the projector headlights in Thailand but at pretty much the same price as in the US, not sure about the rear lights.

For headlights, you have to take into consideration whether those are for left hand drive and right hand drive beams when buying overseas (I might be wrong but from memory, Thailand are LHD cars, the same as the US and most parts of the world).

BTW, why would anyone in HK know where to get things in Thailand?

I got my pair today from "truckdepo" on eBay. Costed $240 + $29 shipping, so $270 total. They look really good. In addition, they DO have the box to compensate for the 'lamp defective' malfunction. I have a few pics posted showing the close-ups.

I would have put the lights on, but my car had to go to the shop, so I won't have them in until maybe next week. I also ordered some new LED license lights with load resistors. Hopefully, that will work...but I don't have a good feeling about them lasting too long.

Nice!

Hey Ghaffar,

Looks pretty nice for an aftermarket product. I would like to know if the signal just use a regular bulb or is it LED also? From the Ebay site, the seller says "all LED: running, signal and brakes" It seems to me that your signal has an orange reflection which means it's just a halogen bulb? Those guys has lots of misinformation/false advertising out there

The signal bulb is regular halogen, but if you really want the LED, just go to superbrightleds.com, and they can get you squared away. I also bought some license plate lights and load resistors from them. I will post them in the $10 modification thread and install them later.

On there's 3 party LEDs.... does the assembly that installs on the trunk come pre-modified for W210?

Are they plug and play?
