Loosen inner fender to gain access, remove grille to replace DRL. View grille here to see how it clips to bumper http://www.icarpart.com/misc-body-pa...128851853.html

I use getmercedesparts.com occasionally... typically arrives within a week, no issues on that front. However, sometimes the parts don't come with extra things that make them work... e.g. I ordered top hats for the rear springs, but there's a layer of foam/rubber inside them that doesn't have a part number (or show up in the diagrams) and they're basically useless without it. I guess that's not really a knock on the site itself, but rather the way the part blowouts are. I also recently ordered a replacement gas cap and it doesn't come with the nylon clip to hold the rubber "wire" thing to the door. Also not necessarily the fault of the site.
