It's 2023! Are there ANY decent canbus ready H7 & H11 bulbs yet?
Hello,
Forgive me. I'm making this request here because I've researched LED headlamp/foglamp options until I'm blue in the face. I can't seem to find the best recommendation.
Any ideas guys? Are there ANY good quality H7 LED's that will work with the w211 factory halogen projector headlamp housing? Or how about an H7 LED that will work with an ebay factory halogen style projector headlamp knockoff?
And the H11 foglamp too? Any good H11 LED's ?
It's 2023, one might think there would be some decent LED plug and play options for our W211's.
Thanks!

I’ve installed led on my 09 e350 and 02 w210 about 31/2 years ago and it has been working fine without any issue. 100 times better than stock bulbs for sure.
I suggest to search a sellers name on eBay. It shows that Beamtech H7 has an upgrade version available. Mine is a black triangle shape head and new ones are with silver rounded head.
Thanks @taylor210 . Do you have the original part number for the bulbs you have in your car? Do the H7's fit ok into the headlamp housing? Are you able to get the plastic cover back on? Your telling us that the LED bulbs you got work great, but I cannot find the exact bulb you are describing, and the ebay images you posted sound different than the bulbs you recommend.
I would think that the triangle shaped head LED bulb would work better for our projector style headlights than the silver rounded head.
How about the H11's? Do they fit ok in the foglight housing?
Purchased it almost 4 years ago and I just founded the original boxes from my garage.(pics below)
the boxes showing a part numbers attached but no need to worry. all you looking for is H7 Beamtech for low beam and H11 Mostplus for the fog light. The color temperature and Luminous Flux are pretty much similar.
The H7 led fits perfect into the headlight housing and black dust cap also fits like a glove. Enough space between the dust cap and wires. They said that make a 2 small holes on the dust caps for cooling the fan but I haven’t done it but no issue so far…
The black triangle head is one that I have in the car. The silver rounded, newer version came out not long ago so I do not know anything about it.
For the H11 led fogs, fits perfect as well and fog light housing on w211 did not come with dust cap from the factory. I don’t know why but my H1 led on my w210 has a dust cap in the fog lights housing tho…
I’ve bought over 5 different other brand of H7, H11 and H1 led lights prior to these lights for w210 and w211 (Lasfit, Auxito, zentec, Extreme…). They had all the good reviews but None of them work on these cars. Most of them had an error code and only lasted a few months or less. I’ve spent a lot of money and times on this…. Over all, I’m good with the Beamtech and Mostplus brand, not even a single issue so far…
I bought it from 2 other sellers from eBay mentioned above so they should have these items for you. Amazon also has these but it cost way more than eBay. Let me know if you’re having a problem finding the right items. H11 fog H11 fog H7 low H7 low As you can see my 09 did not equipped with dust caps Black triangle head type h7 for low beam

@taylor210 Awesome! You are the man. Definitely appreciate that you've purchased and tried many brands to find the right ones, and you are detailed enough to keep the original packaging. I will check out the led bulbs you've recommended! I'll report back here once I've tried them.

@taylor210 . Hey I got new headlamps and just tried to install the beamtech H7's you recommended. I see they fit in the hole, but how did you mount them? How did you make them fit? The original stainless steel clip does not fit over the beamtech h7's. How did you do this? Did you cut the clip? Or did you buy a new clip?

Not sure where you bought your H7 but you should have asked to seller you need a metal clip. I suggest you call your seller and ask for it. I’ve bought mine from eBay and he included the clip. Or You can buy one from eBay like $9-11 a pair.
