Standing/park 5w bulb
turn socket ccw remove bulb,replace return cw.
if no room in your model probably why they issued this warning
"Replacing the bulbs for the front lamps is a
technically complex process. For your convenience, we recommend that you have this work
carried out by an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Light Truck Center"
get some smaller hands involved is my only suggestion.

Agreed with Benzo. Had the dealership replace one bulb at a cost of over 200.00 dollars. Never again!
long needle nose pliers and in less than 5 minutes both sides are done.

I got the AZN bulbs also. Unless you have mini hands, recommend someone with professional tools. Had mine changed at Euro specialist local shop for $40. Well worth it. They look great when you get them changed, but your fogs will look really yellow! Haven't changed them, and they only come on when the "cornering" feature activates them.
