Depo Tail light question, W211

besides the LED brake lights, are the other lights on these DEPO tail lights removable and replaceable? in other words if one bulb blows out will I be able to replace the bulb with one from an automotive store or is it like the stock setup with the circuit board?

I'm wondering if I buy them can I change the turn signal bulbs to LED error free can bus bulbs.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thank you

I replaced my taillights with the Depo brand and they DO use the "circut board" or socket plate type bulbs. As far as I know if one blows out, you will have to replace the whole socket plate. So the answer to your question is NO the other lights can't be replaced with the LED type ...Good Luck!!!
