Hello,

On a 2006 ML W164 is it possible to install the new style rear lights that have leds. I'm thinking in original ones, not e-bay ones that have resistors.

Any idea if I would need to code something?

Thanks.

Do you have a pic of the new lights?

WOW. Nice AMG.

Yeah, "AMG" on the tailgate and "AMG" on the license frame. That much harder to overlook, I suppose.

what would you have preferred him to reference?

"nice ml63", or "nice SUV", or "nice car"

nothing wrong with him/her referencing "nice amg"

and for someone who posts as much as you... you really don't ever post anything helpful

Oh, you'd be surprised how many times I let poor taste slide.

i'm going to assume by your last statement above that you believe the reference to "amg" is in poor taste because you think the owner of that car slapped on an amg badge and license plate holder?

if so, then you are an ignorant because that is a real 09 ml63 and the badge is there from the factory.

Hey, that's my ride you guys are arguing over. The only badge not from the factory is the license plate frame which the dealer put on for me. It is probably a little over kill but oh well. As far as the lights are concerned as long as they are the same shape, which they should be, they should work. Mine came from the factory with the wrong tail lights (old ones) and they had to order the l.e.d.'s and put them on about a month later. Pretty much plug and play. Good luck with your ride.

On another note, rubensans I just got back from Barcelona and I was really impressed at what a fabulous city it is. The church downtown is truly incredible. Hope your retrofit works out o.k.

Go for it--worst case is you have to add resistors to get rid of any light out warning. We need a guinea pig!

Thanks. I hope you had a nice weather here.... today is completely horrible, but we use to have nice weather.

I you come again give me a PM and we can take a beer.

Best Regards.

I supose for new cars it's as easy to set it on the rear sam.

jajajaja... yes we need that guinea pig, but maybe it's possible to reprogram the rear sam or to set it with new values (similar to the xenon present).

Best Regards.

Do you think Mercedes will come with a "sport" LED rear lights? like the diference they previosly had with sports package models from standard models, the sport models were darker on the sides.

I don't think so because the AMG are also clear.

nice to see if this worked....l like the design of the LED's.....

does anyone know of the availability or part number of the lights yet. i stopped by my dealer's parts department and they said they werent't available and didnt see them listed in the computer

anyone ?

Why don't you give it a try and let us know! I asked my dealer's asst. service manager but he didn't know. Maybe I'll press him on it.

hi rubens selling OEM LED lights because I want to change my ml 320 cdi want you want them ....

where to get those photos?

If someone posts the part numbers, I will buy them and install them with photos and let everyone know if there are 'bulb out' errors

I have a friend with the tool that can check errors and reset things

I have a MY2006

It's MY 08. Not Sport.

164 820 39 64
164 820 40 64
