I took a series of videos which will elaborate ..

Aznoptics told me he had not fully tested these on the W211, they are CANBUS made for the C-class. I figured I'd take a shot and try them anyways.

I installed the driver side just fine, I'm having an issue getting the passenger light clip back in, just a weird angle. I'm going to wait till the daytime so I can see better, I was breaking a sweat trying to get it back in this evening.

Video 1 - General Front Shot
Drivers Side - AZNoptics LED
Passenger Side - OEM unchanged - Sylania bulb

Video 3 - Light Pattern / Brightness
As you can see in the video the light output of the LED is pretty weak compared to the light thrown out by halogen. I would like to see a brighter light, but then again as long as the turn signal lights up a crisp clear amber, that is all that matters.

I find it hard to believe that took ten hours of labor, but pretty neat.

I finished up the drivers side today, my left wrist is sore from trying to align the bulb with the housing for 20mns again. I put the flashers on so I would know when the bulb was seated(does NOT work), it takes a while to seat, the bulb was not coming on when I seated it, I thought it was messed up, or I broke a clip. After seating the clip into the housing for good one last time I decided to reset the hazards to re-kindle the connection, and it came on perfectly! - but then the right turn signal error came on!

Video #4 with Error (there is no error, just me jumping the gun, but sharing my experience)

Decided the car just needed another reboot like resetting the flashers.. and I was right..

here is the final installed can-bus error free proof of the AZNoptics W211 LED parking/turn signals.

Just saw the tech pictures.. I'd like to withdraw my comment about ten hours of labor, that is some impressive work right there.

Been wanting to do this in FOREVER! Do you have a link?

Nice mod. 2 questions though.

How do the led's look in the daylight? Are they bright enough?

Can these be used for the rear turn signals also?

I guess that's 3 questions. Lol

djrabbi

rear turn signals you can't since they are on a board. but in the day light, i assume they won't be as bright but still can be visible

BagMan

I ended up grabbing a pair and installed them this evening. No problems. Cleaner look and gets rid of the fried eggs.

Thanks OP and AZNOptics!

I can't disagree with you on the color. They seem to match the side marker lights (orange/dark amber) I was hoping for a more yellow color also.

Thanks MB4Tronic, has anyone else confirmed that the turn signals will work error free? Im about to place an order for signals, parking/city, and license plate bulbs.

I can confirm the 3457 turn signals work in the W211. They require a little bit of fiddling to get the wire contacts to work, since the W211 normally uses 1156 or 1157 bulbs. Although I decided to go back to using the stock bulbs, as the amber led's I got from AZN didn't match the stock LED side mirrors. If you want to buy a pair of AZN amber 3457 leds, PM me and I'll sell my used pair for cheap.

BagMan

The amber ones don't match. Ask mike for yellow ones. I have them now and they work with no errors and match the mirror LEDs perfectly.

Thanks guys for the honesty, I'll probably go with some chromed amber bulbs

so you used 3157 bulb as opposed to the stock 1157 style? I bought the 1157 bulbs from AZN but get errors and its stated i need resistors. But it looks like you used 3157 without anything further??
