There seem to be many options for replacement LED DRLs on Amazon, eBay. You would need to check for shipping to Canada, because I’m in the U.S. You could also try salvage dealers for exact OE replacements.
LED bulbs outlast incandescent halogen by maybe 10x. Hid headlight bulbs last maybe 5x longer than incandescent. By the time they blow I would think you would be on at least your 5th pair of non led bulbs in other areas of the car. Check to see if it’s getting power before buying new lights . A Fuse or wiring could be bad. LED should outlast the car.
Can see moisture inside one of them, looks like a crack in the others lens. Not sure if they are servicable like taking off the lense and trying to dry them out and see whats wrong. Try taking them apart. Looking around on ebay i came across just the light part for less money than replacing the entire assembly. Maybe this will work?

BOTH ?!?! ... to quote you.
To me, that suggests a fuse , wiring, or some odd switch. Do they not light up?
And this sparked my memory banks ... our 2014 GLK's left side (driver, US) has been caput for about 4 years now. Back in those days when I discovered the outage, I priced the component ... $125. USD ... I decided to wait and see about options, but obviously I've forgotten.
Unfortunately, I don't have any resources for suggested replacements, but I'd check for electrical issues first.

Hilarious ... just at the moment I tapped "Reply" to warn you about the revealing URL in your (original) Reply, you obviously edited your Reply, at the exact same moment ... which is now only text content, with URL removed. Smart move 👍
I would be tempted to purchase the DLR pair for $35.00, but I'm highly reluctant to order from AliExpress, because of its origin (to avoid credit card use).
Thanks for the thought. I edited the post as soon as I saw it. I have been buying from aliexpress for many years and have never had an issue, as far as credit card use.
I don’t believe they can not be turned off. My USA Glk was made in Germany . But if so check its getting power at the light . Those LED lights will outlast any car . LED can outlast a motor by 10x in hours .

The issue is not that the LEDs are burned out. Both lenses are quite obviously cracked. One has also fogged up.
In Canada, DRLs are mandatory since 1990. They can not be turned off. It's the law.

thank you. My lights currently illuminate and have 4 LEDs on each housing and my passenger side has one LED out and with them both cracked. I’ll replace both. Just happy to have a replacement guide along with the parts
Thank you everybody for the replies. My lights have power and do work. One led in the strip on the passenger has burnt out and with both sides lenses cracked they need replacing.
Probably poor initial post by myself. DRL are mandatory here and we cannot disable them. I guess j could unplug them until I find a replacement but then I’d have another warning and I cannot stand those. So I will continue to hunt the part down.
