Upgrading parking lights to LED?

Can I upgrade parking/standing light to LED bulbs without errors - will it be a direct replacement? Please suggest a good brand along with the correct bulb size.

Is this for your 2008 C300 you have listed in your garage or for an M class (we're in the M class channel). Either way, the answer is yes, but it has to be canbus enabled LED, not just any standard LED or it will not function properly with your front SAM. We carry LEDs that will work fine. Shoot us a PM and we can get you squared away.

Yes, this is for W166. Anyone used aznoptics t10 bulbs 5000k as their parking light, if so then how are they in relation to light output and reliability. Any other options?

Yup.. T10/194/w5w wedge bulbs. Just search around.. plenty of reviews across all models here... We've been servicing MB community here for nearly a decade.
