OEM Day time running lights LED

Sold my 09 GL and have a full led running lights retrofit. Both lights purchased from Mercedes, original. Also included are error eliminators from ebay, just plug them into old wiring.
You know prices for these at MB so I am open to offers above $280
Will post pictures later.

450 GL, CDI, 2010. Am not sure I understand what you mean.
I have 2 lamps on the bumper and want to go LED. I have some part nos but not sure, do you by any chance have the part nos for the DRL's., cover, bezel and lamp, where did you get the error eliminators.

Sorry about the confusion. My old 09 had regular fog lamp so I changed them to new day light led like on new models. Error free unit r from eBay but you just plug them into original fog lamp harness. I am selling led lights with Chrome trim included. Right now Chrome is plasti dib in black color but it it easy removable. They should fit your car.

Some pictures. Let me know if have any questions or need additional pics. They r like new condition, everything works. I can remove black plastidip if needed. Wire connectors included too.

All you need is to connect these to power source.

The Lamp and chrome Bezel fittings are much longer on mine, exactly the same as on picture of 'Jason B's' vehicle. I will be looking for the same. I have seen similar like the ones you have on Ebay, they are shorter in lenght. This is a big car the longer fittings suit it.

Does anyone have the DRL LED Part Nos.

wiring cable

I managed to find the part nos. for the Led's and got the parts.
The wiring is an issue. How do I connect them? First and foremost I dont know what type of connector goes on to the back of the LED, what is it called, does it have a no.
I have read, resistors are needed and a wiring harness or make a harness.
I don't understand what to do with the 2nd wiring cable, there are 2 lamps on each side with large connectors, does it get joined together and then connected to the Led?
Can somebody please help with pictures and instructions, walk me thru this. I don't know enough about anything really
Basically, I need help in connecting the Led's. Here are some pictures.
Thank you for your help





Fog and Drl's


New Led


Back of Led, pin socket

Thank you so much.
