Average cost to replace a brake light??
My car is out of warranty and my left brake light went out this morning. Anyone know what it might cost to replace it, on a 2005 Mercedes-Benz C230 Kompressor Sedan??

Aaahhhh the benefits of being cute!! I called my dealer, they're going to fix it for free,, lucky me!!
After talking to them, it didn't sound like a big expense anyway.

Must be nice, I had my bulb indicator on when I took my 2000 C230K in for some other issues. Apparently it was a tail light and side marker. $10 for the bulbs, $90 for the labor of putting them in. Go figure. But the other issues caused the car to be in the shop for over a week so at that point I didn't care, I just wanted the car back.

OK, I'm confused......you have a 2005 C class and you are out of warranty? Don't all Mercedes come with a 4 year/50K mile warranty?
Of course I don't think light bulbs are covered under warranty anyways?
And how do we know how cute you are....you never posted a pic! For all we know you could just be mildly hot.......maybe the dealer fixed it out os sympathy for just being eh...so-so. Of course to prove me wrong you'll have to start posting some pics otherwise!
