Free Black Friday Parking Light LEDs from The Retrofit Source!

Hey, I was looking to do a HID headlight install on my 2011 E350 W212 and reviewed a thread posted by another member. I went the site they bought their kit from and noticed that they have FREE 194/T10 (compatible with our W5W socket) 5000K LEDs to replace my parking lights to match the new HID kit I bought!

Shipping for my order was free because I bought a HID kit but even if you have to pay for shipping it was less than $4. Not bad for a free $20 set of parking lamp LEDs!

Here is the link to the site if you want to take advantage:

https://www.theretrofitsource.com/me...ackfriday.html

This is not a promo or advertisement or anything like that. Just one MB lover trying to help another!

Enjoy!

Forgive my stupidity, where on the car do "parking lights" go?

Are these under the mirrors?

For four bucks I bought them too, just want to know where they go.

According to the website, it seems they're license plate bulbs, but I still don't know.

Anyone install these yet? I got mine in on Monday but I've been too lazy to even pop open my hood and see how easy or hard it is to access where these bulbs go and replace them :B

I tried to install but I think the original parking lights are permanently attached somehow..

I might try to install somewhere inside my car if I can figure out how lol

So I replaced my license plate bulbs with these, they seem brighter then stock but I haven't seen them at night yet. Took more work than I thought it would, hopefully it was all worth it. When it gets dark I'll take a picture if its not raining.

EDIT: Forgot to mention they were error free.
