Mercedes 2015 E400 Sedan (W212)
W212 Clear Tail lights

Hi Guys,

What do you think of these tail lights. I think it looks unique, should I replace my stock tail lights. Has anyone bought the Anzo LED tail lights?

my car color is steel Gray meta

I like it, it looks more aggressive and follows the rear trunk trim.

Here is my car

Not for me, but at the end of the day it’s all about your personal style. They look like lights that someone would put on their Honda Civic or import car. I would vote to stick with the stock lights.

They are certainly unique, but I feel the clear lights would clash too much with the grey color (I have the same color).

Certainly, not looking for problems with these cars. Hopefully, the manufacturer will help you get them to work out of the box. I would not be surprise there will be a few glitches before getting them working w/o long term issues.

Good luck

I used to have one of those when I had my pre facelift W212 . I love them but I have to admit W212 FL OEM taillights look more proper choice or look better

The standard OEM, ribbon LED taillights is the feature that first attracted me to the facelift W212. It is the epitome among all Mercedes models of the ribbon LED light style. I wouldn't dream of replacing them, but that's just me...

I think the facelift ribbons are a great tribute to the taillights of the 70s and 80s era of mercedes, which all had the same basic tail light design. The facelift w212 is the most authentic "mercedes" modern mercedes out there in my opinion.

I see a major option missing from just below the left tail light. Casualty of the parking lot incident?

Good memory. Uh, no. The photo above was taken before I added the graphic. Marvin the Martian is doing fine.
