W211 License Plate Lamp Replacement
Long story short, for some reason my license plate LED's keep going out but, I'm not having problems with any of my other LED's. Also noticed that the red reflector bulbs in the door doesn't light up very bright either. Not sure if this has anything to do with my license plate LED's constantly going out.
Question is, does anyone else have problems with their LED's and have had any luck in fixing this? Also, would complete LED license plate housings fix the problem?

I was having the same problem, I ended up buying LED's with load resistors on them... And even a pair went out once but they lasted much longer... I bought from a spot in San Gabriel, ijdmtoy I think is what it was called.
For whatever reason my Benz didn't like LED plate lights or the one on the inside of the trunk... Every other one is fine besides the ones on the trunk

yeah, pretty weird. i thought maybe my trunk led's was causing the problem so i took those out and that didn't do anything. all the ones i had, were canbus LED's with built-in load resistors.
i don't want to install led lamp replacements and have that burn out and have to uninstall it...

you work for nokya right? or sell their products or something, i remember you trying to get me a set for my fogs or something a while ago. how do these hold up again mtec? seriously, all the nokya bulbs i've had in the past have all burned out way too quickly.
how much are the lamp replacements? forum discount?
