LED Tail Lights.

I have searched the forum for pictures of W211's with aftermarket tail lights. I am interested in buying these on Ebay:

Does anybody have them? If so, have you had any problems with the system (i.e. error messages)? Any pictures of these lights installed would be appreciated/welcomed.

They look like OEM LED tail lights.. You can buy them at the dealer also. I would just get them at the dealer for form a sponsor here that are OEM so you dont run into issues. Any new E350 with sports package or any older E class with the lighting package should have them you can find a ton of pictures of them in the picture gallery.

I have those and they are actually very nice. I did have to tweek the passenger side however, cuz it just wasn't flush. I just put some stainless washers on the top stud (shimmed it out) before the nut went on. No biggie!

Also go to Silverbulbs.com and get some 7507 bulbs so you don't see the ugly orange bulb. It made a huge difference.

Thanks for the pictures. I think I makes a huge difference to give it that custom-look. Have you gotten any 'error' messages since the installation???

Direct plug and play. No error messages yet and they've been on the car for 1 year!

You shouldn't receive any error messages since you are not modifying the bulb or sockets. They still retain the same factory harness. Only the housing has been modified.
