Hi Guys did you found some License plate light who don't code ?
Thanks
Unfortunately no built in solution. We could slap a huge enough resistor on there that won't trigger code, but the heat it would give off would burn through the solder and leave you with a broken LED... obviously not something we'd offer. The only way around right now is to have an external load resistor so the heat isn't in contact with the delicate LED components.
I have a 2011 ML350 - looking for low beam bulbs and fog lamps (at least) before I add high beams. My OEM lights are horrible...I can barely see the road. Any help!!!

Yes, we can definitely help. For halogen low beams,we recommend our hybrid HID conversion kit: H7 Hybrid HID conversion kit. High beams also use the same H7 kit. For fogs, this will depend on package as it could be the same H7 kit or an H11 H11 Hybrid HID conversion kit. Check your owners manual which should specify which bulb type you have there.
Hey there. I run a set of your w5w bulbs in my parking lights (w164). Purchased April 2018. They’ve been great. Recently however they’ve started flickering or flashing when you first start the vehicle. With the key in the on position but vehicle not started (warming glow plugs) they both flash or flicker. Once the vehicle is started they go solid on. Also, maybe once every couple of weeks I get an error on the display regarding parking light malfunction, for both right and left, never one or the other. The lights are both on when I get this error and if the vehicle is turned off and restarted the error goes away.

Any idea what’s going on?

How's the weather been? Electronics tend to act strange in colder weather when power lines aren't well insulated. We've had this occasionally happen with some customers in colder climates during cold start. After the car warms up a bit though, electronics go back to steady state and all good.
Yup, even though it’s been unseasonably warm up here it’s still winter, temp in the morning is likely -5 to -10 Celsius. Thanks for the quick response.
By user request, we're working on a new product for those with painted sidemarkers and don't want any lights showing but also no error codes. This will be a circuit board design straight plug in replacement with no actual LED light source. We are in user testing right now, but hope to have it available sometime in Aug.
Only 6 sets left of LED blanks for those with painted sidemarkers and want no lighting and no errors 194 Blanks. With supply chain issues due to Covid19 with our manufacturing in South Korea, not sure when we'll be able to get new units in.
Ok, so you're talking about a rewiring job. You'll probably need to splice in load resistors to close the circuit on the standard trigger wire to not throw errors and run a tap from switch line to the markers/parking..
